New Research Project: A request for expressions of interest: microfinance projects in situations of displacement; border closures in mass influx situations
UNHCR's Policy Development and Evaluation Service (PDES) has launched two new research projects and would be interested to hear from anyone with an
interest in these issues.
The first project is an assessment of microfinance projects in situations of displacement, focusing especially on protracted refugee
situations.
The second project is a historical analysis of border closures in mass influx situations, focusing particulalry on UNHCR's response to this
phenomenon.
