Recommendation 4
4
Paragraph: 45
Advocate for vulnerability-based assistance and trauma-sensitive approaches in all future refugee responses.
Recommendation
The UK Government has adopted an approach in Jordan and Lebanon that incorporates the needs of the host community in its refugee response programming. It should use the Global Refugee Forum to advocate humanitarian response plans that distribute assistance according to vulnerability rather than someone’s immigration status. It must ensure that future responses to displacement crises adopt a trauma- sensitive approach to avoid retraumatising individuals and to provide psychological support.
