So You Think You Can Stay: The Campaign About Norway's Strict Asylum Policy


The campaign "So You Think You Can Stay" by the the Norwegian Organisation for Asylum Seekers (NOAS), wants to pay attention to Norways strict asylum policy, and the asylum seekers struggle to get much needed protection.


So You Think You Can Stay gives a face to a group of people who often receive negative media attention: Rejected asylum seekers. We wish to show that also most people in this category have good reasons to leave their home country and seek protection in Norway. Norwegian asylum policy is strict and many people are rejected in contradiction with UNHCR’s recommendations.


The stories of the contestants are based on real asylum cases that NOAS engages in through legal aid. Asylum seekers in Norway are rejected for the same reasons as the contestants in So You Think You Can Stay.
