Voluntary Repatriation to Afghanistan Key Features

Katharina Lumpp, Shoko Shimozawa and Paul Stromberg

The authors are UNHCR's current protection, repatriation and programme officers in Kabul, Afghanistan. The review is based on the valuable and vast information provided by numerous other colleagues, who have been working in the Afghanistan operation, as well as documents produced by UNHCR. The views expressed in the article are nevertheless those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the United Nations

This overview is guided by the core components, parameters and activities set out in UNHCR's background note on voluntary repatriation for the Global Consultations (EC/GC/02/5 of 25 April 2002). It describes UNHCR's attempts to address the many challenges posed by one of the organization's largest voluntary repatriation operations. Afghans were and continue to constitute the largest single group of persons under UNHCR's mandate, as refugees, asylum-seekers and as returnees for over two decades.
