Refugee Protection Assistant - UNHCR
Refugee Protection Assistant в Бухаресті (Румунія, UNHCR)

The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) was created in 1950, during the aftermath of the Second World War, to help millions of Europeans who had fled or lost their homes. We had three years to complete our work and then disband.

Today, over 70 years later, our organization is still hard at work, protecting and assisting refugees around the world.

The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has precipitated one of the fastest-growing displacement and humanitarian crises in recent history. Over 6.5 million refugees have fled Ukraine, seeking refuge in neighboring countries such as Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Moldova, and Romania, with many moving onward shortly after arrival. Following the declaration of a Level 3 emergency for Ukraine and its neighboring countries during 2022, the Regional Bureau for Europe and respective country operations have significantly scaled up their capacities to deliver protection, urgent assistance, and coordination in response to the rapidly deteriorating humanitarian situation. UNHCR’s Multi-Year Strategy 2024 — 2026 will mainly focus on providing assistance and protection services to the most vulnerable forcibly displaced populations while seeking for medium and long-term solutions for the inclusion of refugees in the country, in support of the Government of Romania’s primary response.

As of 13 June 2024, more than 5.9 M refugees were recorded in Europe. As of 31 March 2024, 77.9 K refugees are living in Romania. The Government of Romania and UNHCR have been actively responding since the onset of the emergency, both at the borders and in areas where refugees are settling. Close collaboration and policy coordination with the government are maintained at national and local levels. Through the Inter-Agency Refugee Coordination Model and the Refugee Response Plan, UNHCR, in partnership with UN agencies and NGOs, supports the government’s refugee response, ensuring full harmonization and complementarity both at the central and local levels. UNHCR Romania has its Country Office in Bucharest, Field Offices in Timisoara (where the Emergency Transit Center is established), Suceava, and Galati, and a Field Unit in Constanta, covering key border crossing points.
