Year-end Overview
Plan Overview
Working environment
In 2018, Kenya will continue to be amongst the top hosting countries for refugees in a protracted situation. The majority of refugees and asylum-seekers are from Somalia (287,400) followed by South Sudan (110,400).
In 2018, UNHCR will continue to build on the New York Declaration on Refugees and Migrants and the Comprehensive Refugee Response Framework (CRRF), adopted by member states in 2016.. Focus will be on facilitating durable solutions, and inclusive, integrated and sustainable humanitarian and development solutions. Led by the Government, the sustained and adequate support of the UN, development partners, business, and civil society is vital if these results are to be achieved. Strong partnerships with the central authorities and refugee hosting counties of Garissa, Nairobi and Turkana will be key to achieve integration and inclusion of refugees in County Development Plans and Kenya’s 2018-2022 UNDAF.
Key priorities
In alignment with the New York Declaration and CRRF, the main operational priorities in Kenya for 2018-2019 are:
- Investing in preserving and securing asylum and protection space;
- Supporting the establishment of effective, efficient and fair government asylum and protection institutions and systems;
- Supporting Government to develop and implement an effective national refugee management system;
- Refugee and hosts benefit from quality integrated public and private social services in education and health;
- Investing in inclusive socio-economic solutions for refugee and host community livelihoods and resilience;
- Ensuring peaceful coexistence for both communities in Turkana County where the Kalobeyei settlement integrated development approach is being piloted; and in Garissa County, home of Dadaab and a socio-economic development and environmental rehabilitation priority region;
- Supporting the achievement of durable solutions for refugees and stateless persons;
- Pursuing the efforts in streamlining risk management in the country operations.
