COVID-19 Briefing: Asylum Seekers and the Right to Food
This briefing on people seeking asylum and COVID-19 aims to lay out some of the experiences of food access for this group during the pandemic. We highlight some of the key barriers that people seeking asylum face in accessing their right to food, as well as the policy responses that would prevent household food insecurity.
Right to Food: Everyone has the right to enjoy safe, nutritious and sustainable food. This project advocates the realisation of the Right to Food in UK law.
