CGRS tracks gender asylum cases nationally and engages in research on gender asylum cases around the world. Cases are entered into CGRS’s database, and every effort is made to include complete and accurate information. Given the absence of official governmental records and the many disparate sources of international case law, the information included in the CGRS database is by no means a comprehensive representation of all gender asylum decisions in any particular country. Every effort is made to include complete and accurate information. Please contact us with questions, additions and corrections.
