Lithuania
UNHCR’s work in Lithuania focuses on supporting the government in implementing international legal standards on asylum and statelessness, ensuring that refugees and asylum-seekers have access to protection, rights, and essential services. As part of the Ukraine Refugee Response Plan, Lithuania has worked with local partners and refugee-led organizations to promote legal aid, social inclusion, and community-based support.
With a growing emphasis on capacity building and integration at the municipal level, Lithuania demonstrates its commitment to shared responsibility and solidarity in addressing displacement and has increased its funding to UNHCR.
