Establishing and Sustaining Refugee Camps: Planning for Renewed Life

摘要

The process of providing humanitarian assistance to refugee situations is complexand fluid. It includes determining the legal status of the refugees, providing basic life sustaining needs, establishing safe-havens and camps, and seeking durable solutions. The integration of the military into the assistance process offers unique challenges to operational planners. The military offers capabilities which facilitate and may even speed refugee relief operations. A major challenge to planners is to integrate the military capabilities into the international response and assist in the attainment of permanent solutions for the refugees without building a refugee dependency on the assistance provided. in
