  10. Refugee (an officially recognized term) • A person who flees across an international boundary because of a well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group, or political opinion. Asylum Seeker: A person who wants to be recognized as a refugee in the country s/he is going, so that s/he can legally migrate to that country.
