High Commissioner Structured Dialogue with IFRC and the NGOs

In 2012, the High Commissioner launched a special dialogue process with representatives and members of ICVA, InterAction and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), to review the quality of our partnership. The Dialogue produced recommendations to which UNHCR and partners are committed.
