Little is known, however, about what happens to them on that return journey, on arrival in the country to which they are deported, and during the weeks and months that follow. Deportees are generally out of sight, and therefore quickly out of mind. But many of them are vulnerable and face considerable risks after deportation. These risks include loss of belongings, lack of identity papers, homelessness, destitution, trauma, depression, suicide, extortion, detention, and inhumane and degrading treatment \u2013 indicators that deportation in some cases may in fact constitute <em>refoulement<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The articles in this mini-feature examine four cases:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>failed asylum seekers deported to the Democratic Republic of Congo, Sri Lanka and Eritrea<\/li>\n<li>risks for formerly unaccompanied minors deported to Afghanistan<\/li>\n<li>failed asylum seekers deported to Uganda<\/li>\n<li>the fate of people returned to Turkey under the EU-Turkey deal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Based on insights from the ground, all four articles show the need for independent post-deportation monitoring.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Post-deportation resources<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Post-Deportation Monitoring Network<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.refugeelegalaidinformation.org\/post-deportation-monitoring\">www.refugeelegalaidinformation.org\/post-deportation-monitorin<\/a><br \/>\nThis project has three main goals: to protect and assist rejected asylum seekers after deportation; to document and report post-deportation human rights violations; and to use such reports to lobby governments in host countries to change their asylum policies.
