| Summary |
The primary objectives of this report are to: 1. outline the ways in which states have already attempted to respond to the Afghan refugee crisis 2. discuss realistic and measured ways to address the refugee crisis without undermining border security 3. improve transatlantic and global coordination in reinvigorating standards on refugee resettlement across the world. This report outlines how the refugee resettlement coalition can be restructured. The report also explains how the humanitarian situation in Afghanistan has deteriorated significantly since the fall of Kabul, why Afghans are leaving their home country in increasing numbers, and why the international community must reinvigorate the global resettlement coalition to address this crisis and future refugee crises |
