The Convention defines the term \u2018refugee\u2019 and outlines the rights of the displaced, as well as the legal obligations of States to protect them. Many feel the Convention is out of date and needs to be re-written to reflect today&#8217;s priorities and needs.<\/p>\n<p>This excellent presentation was a wonderful introduction to Maggie and her club members look forward to working with her in the years to come.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_920\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-920\" style=\"width: 245px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"\/glasgow-city\/files\/2019\/01\/Myrtle-and-Maggie_new-member_Jan-2019_compressed.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-920\" src=\"\/glasgow-city\/files\/2019\/01\/Myrtle-and-Maggie_new-member_Jan-2019_compressed-245x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"245\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/glasgow-city\/files\/2019\/01\/Myrtle-and-Maggie_new-member_Jan-2019_compressed-245x300.jpg 245w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/glasgow-city\/files\/2019\/01\/Myrtle-and-Maggie_new-member_Jan-2019_compressed.jpg 451w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 245px) 100vw, 245px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-920\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">President Myrtle presenting Maggie with her membership certificate.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At a recent meeting, Glasgow City S.I. welcomed our newest member, Maggie to the local&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":460,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-926","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Glasgow City S.I. welcomes a new member! | News | Blog | Events | SI Glasgow City<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI Glasgow City : Blog &amp; News : Glasgow City S.I. welcomes a new member! : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI Glasgow City .
