 Ladies and gentlemen,
Thank you for choosing the topic of “Challenges for Persons of Concern to UNHCR in Urban Settings”, since the numbers of refugees in the cities are increasing and their percentage among the overall refugees is going high, in addition to the consequences resulted from the increasing burdens laid on the host communities in all aspects of life.
