The primary objective of this online course is to raise awareness about alternatives to detention (ATDs) in the context of migration. Detention can have detrimental effects on migrants' health and well-being and may lead to violations of their human rights, including exposure to inhumane conditions, arbitrary deprivation of liberty, and denial of procedural rights and guarantees. Both the international community and international law emphasize that ATDs should be prioritized over detention, with detention reserved strictly as a last resort.
The course is free and available in English all year at the E-campus.
