| Title: | UNHCR turns 70. Reflections on founding, developments and today’s role |
| Authors: | Krause, Ulrike |
| Abstract: | On this day, 70 years ago, the United Nations General Assembly founded the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) by adopting its statute. This statute still forms the basis of UNHCR’s functioning but much has happened – and changed – over the decades. In this piece, I reflect on UNHCR’s founding, some of the developments over time as well as UNHCR’s value and challenges today. |
