The UNHCR Office in Cyprus issues various publications on refugee-related topics.
These publications are focused on particular areas of concern locally, and are shared publicly to spread awareness about refugees and other related topics such as reception conditions, access to education and social inclusion.
Globally UNHCR’s Resources and Publications include a wide range of materials from basic documents such as the 1951 Refugee Convention to research and evaluation papers and two annual flagship publications – the Global Appeal and Global Report.
