8 UNHCR s Approach to Livelihoods and Economic Inclusion for Refugees
9 UNHCR s Approach to Livelihoods and Economic Inclusion for Refugees Inclusiveness helps with Avoiding creating parallel systems. Attracting additional development funding to reinforce national systems. Ensuring consistency in the level of services offered to nationals and non-nationals. Reducing risks of social issues caused by exclusion (poverty, delinquency, radicalism, negative livelihoods strategies, etc.). Bringing diversity and richness to many areas such as economy, culture, education, sports, and art. Achieving economy of scale Complying with human rights conventions.
10 UNHCR s Approach to Livelihoods and Economic Inclusion for Refugees Why Graduation for Refugees Increasing number of refugees; increasing length and number of protracted refugee situations; decreasing funding Need for sustainable livelihoods and economic inclusion approaches increase self-reliance and decrease reliance on UNHCR funding A Graduation lens helps to sequence existing interventions so the poorest refugees receive the appropriate support at the appropriate point in their development UNHCR already offers many components of the Graduation Approach (e.g. case management, cash transfer, skills development, self/wage employment initiatives) The objective is to provide evidence and success models to Governments and development actors to enhance the inclusion of refugees in poverty alleviation and development efforts such as the Graduation Approach.
