Given the central role that the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) plays in the displacement context, I have featured its publications and resources prominently in my blog posts over the years. But its output has also grown considerably, and it can be challenging to keep track of. To help address this issue, I put together a resource page of UNHCR's publications and resources in 2021, and I check it at least annually to ensure the information and links are still correct.
My most recent update includes several more substantial edits, particularly regarding how to search both UNHCR's global site and field office sites. I also plan on putting together a future post that focuses on recent developments relating to UNHCR's Archive and Records section and how they are responding to recent and very significant funding cuts.
Finally, I was reminded recently about the importance of using an expansive definition of what constitutes an "information resource" after reading Jeff Crisp's Refugee History blog post on "UNHCR memoirs and biographies."
