Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The growing interdependence in the world and the increasing number of refugees has made public policy in this area one of the key challenges facing nations today. A number of countries have introduced policies aimed at deterring non-genuine refugee claims. Canada is lagging behind in developing solutions to its growing refugee problems, namely large backlogs and growing number of applications. This study identifies the challenges of Canada’s current inland refugee system to recommend policy options to reduce incentives for abuse by non-genuine claimants. Using a comparative case study analysis of Australia, the UK, and Sweden, it provides policy recommendations on how these can be addressed. The analysis shows that streamlining procedures, having one agency responsible for claim processing, and the provision of social benefits being tied to a claimant’s compliance with claim processing lead to an efficient refugee determination system. The policy options proposed focus on these policies as they have been successful in other countries but are missing in Canada. Designating all refugee claim-processing matters to the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada is presented as the best of the three policy alternatives.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
