Route-Based Approach

Strengthening Protection and Solutions in the Context of Mixed Movements of Refugees and Migrants

 

The Route-Based Approach is a strategic, holistic, cross-border framework to assist States in responding more effectively and predictably to the challenges of mixed movements of refugees and migrants in line with their international obligations. It engages States to ensure international protection and solutions for refugees, while upholding rights and creating opportunities for migrants, along key routes. It proposes a set of comprehensive, targeted and coordinated interventions to be taken by States, UNHCR, IOM, other UN agencies, civil society partners, migrant and refugee organizations and other stakeholders, along main routes in countries of origin, asylum, transit and destination.
