Innovation
Our Innovation projects draw on the expertise of different UNHCR divisions, refugees, academia and the private sector to creatively address complex refugee challenges.
New projects are prototyped and tested in UNHCR operations worldwide, but we also look for ways to adapt existing innovations to refugee-specific contexts.
Each year, 20 UNHCR Innovation Fellows are trained, mentored and supported as they work to address challenges unique to their operations.
