The Convention relating to the Status of Refugees was adopted on
28 July 1951
The Convention relating to the Status of Refugees was adopted on 28 July 1951 by the United Nations Conference of Plenipotentiaries on the Status of Refugees and Stateless Persons held at Geneva.
It entered into force on 22 April 1954; its temporal and geographical limits were removed by the Protocol relating to the Status of Refugees of 1967, and it defines a refugee and lays down the principle of non-refoulement in Article 33.
The other dates do not correspond to the adoption of the Convention; 28 July is marked as its anniversary by the UNHCR.
Check: the testimonium clause of the Convention reads that it was done at Geneva on the twenty-eighth day of July, one thousand nine hundred and fifty-one, which is the adoption date of 28 July 1951.
Hence, 28 July 1951.
