The Philippines, through the Department of Foreign Affairs , signed a legal framework program that will allow Rohingya refugees to enter the country and receive their tertiary education here.

“This initiative concretizes the country’s pledge at the first Global Refugee Forum in 2019 to explore complementary pathways for admitting refugees and President Rodrigo Duterte’s emphasis on protection for those fleeing for safety,” Locsin said in a statement. The Philippines is a state party to the 1951 Refugee Convention and its 1967 Protocol and is also the first country in Southeast Asia to have acceded to the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness which entered into force on Friday, June 24.

The national action plan bolstered the UNHCR’s 10-year campaign to end statelessness through the Global Action Plan to End Statelessness, the DFA said.
