This review examines the implementation of UNHCR policy on resettlement and
the appropriateness of current practice in the light of existing needs for this durable
solution. The examination is conducted within a broader context of significantly
changing interests of major resettlement countries over recent years.
Recommendations are made for the strengthening of UNHCR's implementing
capacity and operational response in order to narrow the gap between supply and
demand for resettlement places.
