Association for Juridical Studies on Immigration
The Association for Juridical Studies on Immigration (ASGI from its original Italian title, Associazione per gli Studi Giuridici sull'Immigrazione) is an Italian-originated membership-based association which addresses all legal aspects of immigration. The association does this both at national and European levels,[1] in the contexts of numerous aspects of immigration and migrants’ rights.[1] These include the fields of antidiscrimination and xenophobia, children’s and unaccompanied minors' rights, asylum and refugee seekers, statelessness and citizenship. It was founded in 1990.[1][2]
ASGI has ongoing projects within Italy:
- OUT OF LIMBO: a campaign to promote the right of undocumented and stateless Roma migrants to have a legal status in Italy.[3]
- Terragiusta: a campaign against the exploitation of migrant workers in agriculture in Italy.[4]
- In Limine: a project led by ASGI to address issues relating to border control and access to international protection.[5]
