Nànmín

Nànmín is about China’s refugee policy and the country’s treatment of refugees’ from different ethnicities besides China’s engagement with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). Despite China being a party to the 1951 Refugee Convention and the 1967 Protocol it has no domestic definition of a refugee. China in fact has not prioritized a refugee policy. Though the country has emphasized addressing the root causes of the refugee crises it has often failed in terms of refugee convention and protocol. China being the second-largest economy in the world should make an effort in treating all refugees equally. As the refugee crisis is set to increase at an unprecedented rate in the Post-COVID world a comprehensive review of China’s refugee policy is the need of the hour for its reputation at the global stage.
