The Self-Reliance Index (SRI) is the first global tool for measuring the progress of refugee households toward self-reliance. It supports practitioners in designing and providing effective services and can be used to target populations for assistance, highlight service gaps, and inform funding priorities.
Use of the SRI is expected to help build an evidence base for enhancing refugee self-reliance opportunities and allow for comparative global analysis. It may also promote collaboration among service providers to ensure that the holistic needs of refugee households are addressed.
