HTF Online Forum: Rwanda Offshoring Proposal & Modern Slavery

“On Thursday 14th April, the Government announced a new asylum arrangement that seeks to offshore individuals seeking asylum in the UK to Rwanda.

This proposal will see asylum seekers travelling to the UK illegally considered for relocation in Rwanda where their claims will be processed without the option of returning to the UK once decisions have been made. Survivors of modern slavery will also be eligible for the scheme, with Rwanda responsible for providing their support.

Join us to explore the possible risks for survivors of trafficking with ATLEU and the British Red Cross to discuss the concerns the Anti-Trafficking sector has with the Home Office’s offshoring proposal.”
