This event presents a tremendous opportunity for UN Member States and other actors to reflect on the strong human rights dimensions of secure access to housing and land for refugee and returnee men, women and children – with an outlook towards creating sustainable pathways to durable solutions and long-term development outcomes.

The event further serves as a key part of efforts geared toward inspiring renewed political will, resource mobilization and additional in-kind support for addressing tenure-related challenges among forcibly displaced populations and their host communities.

Recognizing the already compelling case for more predictable, equitable, and sustainable systems of response to the housing, land, and property challenges facing refugees, returnees, and their host communities, the programme seeks to build on this – drawing on the experiences of key State and non-state actors and bringing together a diverse and high-powered panel of speakers and discussants, whose contributions to this area of work standout as notable models and promising practices in our quest to bring displacement to end.
