Better Lives Now: Self-Reliance Innovation Labs Learning Briefer
The Refugee Self-Reliance Initiative and the United States Department of State, Bureau of Population Refugees and Migration co-convened an innovation lab focused on refugee self-reliance. The lab included thematic discussions on: (i) Measuring the Impacts of Self-reliance: Data, Evidence, and Research; (ii) Supporting Programming and Practices to Advance Refugee Self-Reliance; and (iii) Fostering Policies to Promote an Enabling Environment in which Refugees and Host Communities Can Thrive. Each discussion convened representatives from academia, foundations, NGOs, research organizations, refugee-led organizations, multilateral institutions, governments (host countries and donors), and the private sector to produce recommendations informing pledging around self-reliance at the 2023 Global Refugee Forum.
