Applications are now open for NGO Programs – Advancing Interim and Durable Solutions that contribute to the global learning and/or advancement of best practices on interim and durable solutions for refugees, asylum seekers, and/or stateless persons.

Durable solutions end an individual’s refugee or stateless status, such as through voluntary return and reintegration, local integration, or resettlement in another country. Given that access to durable solutions remains limited for a majority of refugees and stateless persons and the timeframe to access a durable solution is often protracted and uncertain, PRM also supports access to interim solutions. Interim solutions can be understood as efforts that support inclusion in host country national services such as health care, education, or sustainable housing. It may also, for instance, contribute to self-reliance by supporting access to labor markets and livelihoods, or advance measures that contribute to durable solutions such as identity documentation or addressing freedom of movement.
