UNHCR is releasing today a study on the implementation of the European Union's 'Qualification Directive'. Adopted by the EU in 2004, the Qualification Directive is considered one of
the building blocks of the Common European Asylum System. It sets out the criteria EU Member States must use to decide whether an asylum seeker is entitled to international protection, and what kind
of protection he or she receives, be it refugee status or a subsidiary form of protection.
