Gender-based asylum claims and non-refoulement
Collection of papers on the Istanbul Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence. The Council of Europe Convention (the Istanbul Convention) contains provisions specific to asylum-seeking and refugee women in order to prevent and combat all forms of violence against women, including domestic violence. The publication aims to support policy makers, border and immigration officials and practitioners with the implementation of Articles 60 (Gender-based asylum claims) and 61 (Non-refoulement) of the Istanbul Convention. The subjects include among others definitions, information and examples of gender-based violence that may be recognised as forms of persecution or other serious harm and how to ensure that a gender-sensitive interpretation is given to each of the convention grounds.

Gender and migration
Analysis by regions, countries and types of migration reveals a strong variation regarding levels and features of female and male migration. This approach shows the distinct ways in which gender roles, perceptions and relations, each embedded in a particular cultural, geographical, and socioeconomic context, affect migration dynamics. This volume demonstrates that gender matters at each stage of the migration process.

Women we have not lost yet
On April 26th 2015, when radical Islamist opposition forces in Syria announced the 'Great Attack' on Aleppo, young women of various ethnicities and religions backgrounds sought refuge in Le Pont gallery. They were mostly former participants of Art Camping, a collaborative art project initiated by Le Pont in responsive to the outbreak of the Syrian conflict in Aleppo in 2012. This book documents the photo sessions Issa Touma, photographer and director of the gallery, held at Le Pont during the week of the 'Great Attack', like a last message from Aleppo. It tells the story of a group of girls in their customary dressing, stating their fears during the crises, scared about losing either their life or lifestyle.

De kastdeur op een kier
'Deze handreiking gaat over biculturele LHBT’s en hun omgeving. Hun binding aan hun familie, netwerk en culturele achtergrond enerzijds en de wens om uiting te geven aan hun LHBT-gevoelens anderzijds, maakt hen kwetsbaar. Het kan leiden tot veel stress, maar ook tot depressie, dakloosheid en schulden. Met een beschrijving van de onderzoeksresultaten over LHBT-acceptatie. Waar wordt ingegaan op specifieke effecten .van een lage acceptatie voor biculturele LHBT’s. Ook staan we stil bij de positie van LHBT-vluchtelingen. Tenslotte beleidsaanbevelingen en praktische tips voor gemeenten, beroepskrachten, LHBT- en migrantenorganisaties.'
