Alternatives to Detention in the context of Migration
Enrolment options
 The overall goal of this online course is to increase awareness of alternatives to detention (ATDs) in the context of migration. Detention often has harmful and negative impacts on migrants’ health, well-being and may risk violating their human rights by exposing them to inhumane conditions, arbitrary deprivation of liberty, without access to procedural rights and guarantees.  Both international community and international law recognizes that ATDs should always be considered before detention, leaving detention as a measure of last resort.
