It defines a refugee and establishes the rights of individuals granted asylum as well as the responsibilities of nations that grant asylum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">People <strong>fleeing persecution<\/strong> because of their<strong> race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political beliefs<\/strong> are granted certain rights under the Convention. The Convention also specifies who does not qualify as a refugee, such as war criminals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">The Convention also allows for some visa-free travel for holders of convention-issued documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">The key legal documents are the 1951 Refugee Convention and its&nbsp;<strong>1967 Protocol.&nbsp;<\/strong>In contrast to the 1951 Convention, which only included refugees from Europe, the 1967 Protocol included refugees from all countries.
