Expanding Safe Pathways to the UK for Sanctuary Seekers

Online

15JulA framework for safe pathways


Launching a new policy framework to build inclusive and sustainable safe pathways


Join us for the launch of a new policy framework for safe pathways to the UK, led by experts at King’s College London and co-created with policymakers, civil society actors, and communities with lived experience.

Safe pathways do exist, but they are inaccessible to most people who need them, for instance, because they are restricted to specific nationalities. It is therefore urgently important that safe pathways are expanded to be more inclusive.

The framework offers practical guidance on how the UK can develop sustainable, inclusive, and effective safe routes for sanctuary seekers worldwide.

This timely discussion comes as the UK Parliament considers new immigration legislation. The event will explore the framework’s key recommendations, potential challenges, and its relevance to both UK and international policy contexts.

You’ll hear from:

  • Dr Leonie Ansems de Vries, Reader in International Politics, King's College London
  • Susannah Baker MBE, Founder and Director, The Pickwell Foundation
  • Hannah Gregory, Global Director, Knowledge and Sponsorship, Pathways International
  • Dr Gabriella D'Avino, Research Consultant, University of Birmingham

Whether you're a policymaker, practitioner, researcher, or advocate, this online event offers valuable insights into building more just and humane pathways to sanctuary.
