I tend to separate refugees and migrants, as the process and framing is very different. From a cursory look I'm not the only one [0]. In particular, in many countries refugees and asylum seeker can't do general work or have special conditions attached to it, so it's another whole can of worm.

> I tend to separate refugees and migrants, as the process and framing is very different. From a cursory look I'm not the only one. This is certainly an important distinction, however refugees are a small minority of people coming here. Most come from countries that are classified safe* and most even pass several safe countries to come here, which makes them migrants by default. *: However, they could be in danger because of their religion, sexuality, race. It happens, but it is rare.
