Le Haut-Commissariat des Nations Unies pour les réfugiés a été créé le 14 décembre 1950 par l'Assemblée Générale des Nations Unies, avec pour mandat de coordonner l'action internationale pour la protection des réfugiés et de chercher des solutions aux problèmes des réfugiés dans le monde. Le but premier du Haut-Commissariat des Nations Unies pour les réfugiés est de sauvegarder les droits et le bien-être des réfugiés. Il s'efforce ainsi d'assurer pour tous le respect du droit à demander l'asile et à trouver refuge dans un autre État. À terme, les solutions mises en œuvre sont le retour dans le pays d'origine, l'intégration dans le pays d'accueil ou la réinstallation dans un pays tiers. 4, record 2, French, - Haut%2DCommissariat%20des%20Nations%20Unies%20pour%20les%20r%C3%A9fugi%C3%A9s
