There is now thinking—and you are quite right that this thinking has to be done now—whereby resettlement can be supplemented by other initiatives that will make it easier to give more permanent status to refugees in host countries. That is why the World Refugee Council has emphasized greater support for those countries that are hosting a large number of refugees.
We have suggested creating bilateral and multilateral finance arrangements to ease loan underwriting, to ease the debt burden of some of these states, to help them towards a course of development that will be seen by the local population as a development for themselves, so that the willingness to accept permanent status for the refugees within their own borders will be more acceptable to local populations.
The World Refugee Council makes several such suggestions and proposals, which can, however, only be put into practice if there is a willingness of the international community to work together and to see this as a collective problem wherein everybody contributes to the extent that they are able and to the extent that their resources and expertise allow.
