Dear Partners, We are pleased to launch UNHCR’s mapping tool to identify organizations led by refugees, asylum seekers, returnees, internally displaced people and stateless persons. We invite you to share information on your organization, via this Kobo form accessible through the following links: • https://data.unhcr.org/en/situations/repository-organisations-led-by-forcibly-displaced-and-stateless • https://globalcompactrefugees.org/compact-action/participation-engagement-organizations-led-forcibly-displaced-and-stateless-persons The information you will share with us will allow us to have a database of grassroot, national, regional and global organizations led by forcibly displaced and stateless persons. The analysis of this information will help us have a better understanding of the work you do, the challenges you experience and will furthermore be used to identify opportunities for engagement with UNHCR, including in the lead up to the next Global Refugee Forum. The mapping is voluntary and is filled at the organization level (i.e. by the head of the organizations or a representative). The data you share with us will be dealt with in line with UNHCR’s Privacy Policy. We would be most grateful if you can kindly disseminate the mapping tool within your networks and peer organizations. Should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Thank you so much in advance for taking the time to fill out the form. We truly appreciate it. With many thanks,
