A year in asylum research: Asylos' 2018 Statistics Report

In 2018, Asylos released 118 COI research reports. Behind that figure are the stories of the refugees whom asylum officers are least likely to believe.

Cooperating with partners is an integral part of Asylos' work. We are partnering with a variety of different foundations, organisations, institutions and law firms to ensure the highest standards of quality and functionality in our work.

our mission

We believe in fair process. Those who flee persecution deserve to be heard and believed. We provide the research that ensures asylum decisions are based on proof—not prejudice.
