UNHCR’s Global Appeal provides information for governments, private donors, partners and others interested in our priorities and activities. Information is presented in a print publication and on the Global Focus website.

The Global Appeal 2017 Update print publication presents the financial resources that UNHCR will need in 2017 to protect and improve the lives of tens of millions of forcibly displaced people.

Latest Global Appeal: 2017 Update

All budgets and planning figures in the Global Appeal correspond to the programme budget approved by the member States of UNHCR’s Executive Committee (ExCom) in October each year.

Additional needs are presented separately in Supplementary Appeals. UNHCR’s current Supplementary Appeals can be found on our Global Focus website. These are our primary fundraising tools in new emergencies or situations not covered by the ExCom-approved Annual Budget.
