Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO provided information on the conditions of Salvadoran and Nicaraguan refugees and displaced persons in Honduras, El Salvador, and Costa Rica. GAO found that: (1) about 120,000 Central American refugees, including about 28,000 refugees from El Salvador and about 48,000 from Nicaragua, registered with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and were receiving food, education, and health care assistance; (2) the number of refugees not registered with UNHCR is believed to be several times greater than the number of registered refugees; (3) over 200,000 Salvadorans have been displaced within their own country; (4) camps in Costa Rica had running water and electricity, but refugee camps in Honduras and displaced persons sites in El Salvador did not; and (5) although many refugees have repatriated, continuing conflicts in the region have discouraged others from returning to their countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the situation of refugees and displaced persons in Central America with particular emphasis on assistance and protection issues and on the US Government's policy in the region. It is divided into five parts. The first contains an overview of refugee exoduses and movements of displaced persons within Central America and Mexico. The author suggests that the US Government has not paid sufficient attention to the problems of refugees and displaced persons in Central America, despite the fact that US contributions to UNHCR have been an essential component in the international refugee programmes in that region. The legal status of refugees and protection issues in each country are examined in the second and third parts. The author notes that Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Panama and, recently, Guatemala and El Salvador are signatories to the UN 1951 Convention and its 1967 Protocol. At the same time, she observes that there are no refugee programmes in Guatemala and that the UNHCR has neither been invited to investigate the conditions of the 70,000 Salvadorians there nor to establish programmes to help them. It is pointed out that, while adhering to the principle of non-refoulement, the Mexican Government has been under pressure both internally and also from the US Government to pursue repatriation negotiations with the Guatemalan Government, and that some Salvadorian refugees may have been sent back across the border to Guatemala. The author argues that displaced persons are on the whole more vulnerable than refugee groups to repression and assault, and she notes that the situation in El Salvador has been recognized as a major humanitarian emergency by the Government. The two final parts of the report contain the conclusions and recommendations. The author's recommendations include: 1) assistance programmes should be channelled through local churches or other independent agencies; 2) the US Government should ensure that its assistance programmes be administered by social service agencies, not the military as is the case in Guatemala; 3) there should be an increased international presence in Nicaragua to exert a humanitarian influence in issues concerning Miskito Indians; 4) the US should continue to support ICRC programmes in Nicaragua; 5) US assistance programmes in El Salvador should be less politicized; and 6) the US Government should avoid allowing political and military considerations to take precedence over the protection of refugees. In conclusion, the author suggests that the restoration of peace in the region would result in voluntary repatriation.

This book was released on 2014-06-12 with total page 785 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Refugee and Forced Migration Studies has grown from being a concern of a relatively small number of scholars and policy researchers in the 1980s to a global field of interest with thousands of students worldwide studying displacement either from traditional disciplinary perspectives or as a core component of newer programmes across the Humanities and Social and Political Sciences. Today the field encompasses both rigorous academic research which may or may not ultimately inform policy and practice, as well as action-research focused on advocating in favour of refugees' needs and rights. This authoritative Handbook critically evaluates the birth and development of Refugee and Forced Migration Studies, and analyses the key contemporary and future challenges faced by academics and practitioners working with and for forcibly displaced populations around the world. The 52 state-of-the-art chapters, written by leading academics, practitioners, and policymakers working in universities, research centres, think tanks, NGOs and international organizations, provide a comprehensive and cutting-edge overview of the key intellectual, political, social and institutional challenges arising from mass displacement in the world today. The chapters vividly illustrate the vibrant and engaging debates that characterize this rapidly expanding field of research and practice.

Book excerpt: This booklet reproduces and describes some of the work and creativity of refugees from El Salvador and Guatemala. In the first part of the book, refugees tell why they were forced to leave their homes. The situation in El Salvador and Guatemala is then described, together with the number of refugees who have fled these countries and the reception they receive in the countries of asylum. The second part of the publication contains a series of personal reflections on life in the refugee communities. Refugees flee their homes with nothing, leaving most of their possessions behind. Once they cross the border, they settle in refugee camps, in shanty towns in urban areas, some are resettled in farming cooperatives, others try to find sanctuary in the United States. The experiences of refugees in all of these situations are recounted. Wherever they find asylum, the displaced persons and refugees begin to organize themselves and create new communities and it is this aspect that is next covered. The first priority is to organize food distribution and a hygienic sanitation system. Refugee Coordination Committees are established, new huts built for community centres, health and nutrition clinics, a church, etc. In order to become self-sufficient, crops are planted, workshops are set up for producing handicrafts. Providing facilities for education and skills training is also a major priority. Most of the refugees live with the hope of one day returning to their homes and the refugees express these feelings in the final part of the publication. Suggestions are also given on how the reader can help refugees from Central America.
