Countries participating in the just completed Global Refugee Forum agreed to resettle one million refugees by 2030, supported by a new global sponsorship fund.
The fund aims to assist an additional three million refugees in accessing third countries through innovative community sponsorship schemes, the United Nations said in a news release.
Speaking at the closing of the Global Refugee Forum on Dec. 15, U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres said that protection and help for these most vulnerable of people, was “an obligation shared by all of humanity.”
