COVID-19

Chapter 14 in Elgar Concise Encyclopedia of Migration and Asylum Law, 2025, pp 82-88 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Disruptions to the movement of people across borders and to the protection of migrants’ rights was a significant feature of the COVID-19 pandemic, which drastically altered border regulation worldwide. Preexisting inequities in laws and policies regulating access to protection of basic rights, including to health, have been exacerbated, with migrants, including refugees, denied basic protections during the public health emergency. State use of law and discretion, as well as the lack of coordinated governance of migration, left significant questions for the future of human mobility.
