Thesis
 The living standard and health care of people seeking asylum cannot be
improved until certain changes are not brought in the areas of economic,
environmental and social sustainability.

Background
 The Asylum is basically concerned with protection and safe
environment provided by a state or a country to people who have left their
home town or place of origin (Colic-Peisker, 2015). Over the past decade,
Australia has become a major centre for refugees and as of 2019, more than
50,000 outsiders seek asylum in Australia under the Article 14 of the 1948
Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The country has strict policies
regarding seeking of Asylum which means that refugees that travel by air and
have a valid visa and passport are only allowed to seek shelter in the country
or else they would be detained by the immigration authorities. The major
stakeholders involved in the study are nurses, doctors, government and
migrants.
