Field Unit Esfahan (FUE) was initially established as a Voluntary Repatriation Centre (VRC) in 2002 and was later expanded into a Field Unit in August 2015.
FUE enables programmatic access and outreach to one of the largest refugee populations in the country, Esfahan province, representing 14% of the entire Afghan and Iraqi refugees in Iran.
In April 2017, Field Unit Esfahan was relocated to a new office within the town to enhance refugees’ access to services.
In coordination with key partners, Field Unit Esfahan implements activities in the areas of health, education and livelihoods and also facilitates voluntary returns for Afghan and Iraqi refugees to their country of origin.
Esfahan province has a strong presence in the industrial sector and offers employment opportunities to tens of thousands of workers in Iran, including many Afghans.
UNHCR Field Unit Esfahan is part of the larger Field Office Tehran.
