Helping refugees to return home
The
UN high commissioner for refugees,
Ruud Lubbers, has said that rich countries should do more to
allow refugees to return to their home countries once wars have finished, and stability restored.
He said that as many as
2,000,000 African refugees could now choose to go home and restart their lives, but that international community needs to be prepared to provide
long-term funding + commitment in order to make this possible.
