Number of refugees resettled on UK Resettlement Scheme (19328) Metric type
- Help text
- Resettlement is the transfer of refugees from the country in which they have sought refuge to another State that has agreed to admit them. The UNHCR identifies refugees registered with them and assesses their protection needs. Those determined by UNHCR to be in need of resettlement may be referred to the UK for consideration. Resettlement is provided as a durable solution when integration in the host country or a safe return to a person’s country of origin is not possible.
The UK Resettlement Scheme (UKRS) commenced on 25 February 2021, replacing the VPRS, VCRS and Gateway Protection Programme. The UKRS aims to broaden its geographical focus beyond the Middle East and North Africa to expand resettlement to vulnerable refugees across the world.
