This paper was prepared for the tripartite partners, UNHCR, resettlement country governments, and non-governmental organizations, for the Annual Tripartite Consultations on Refugee Resettlement. Thus, while addressing some of the broader issues confronting urban refugee populations, the focus is, of necessity, on the challenges faced in identifying urban refugees for third country resettlement and, as such, the paper does not go into considerable detail on broader protection and assistance issues nor on resettlement issues effecting rural and camp-based refugees.
