What are some proposed solutions to forced displacement, and what are the limitations?

There are three commonly attempted solutions to forced displacement—but all have serious limitations:

 

Return home – This requires resolution of the conditions that caused displacement. However, most refugee-producing situations last over 26 years, making return impossible for many.

Integrate into the country of refuge – 86% of refugees are hosted by developing nations that often lack the capacity to provide sustainable integration.

Resettle in another country – Fewer than 1% of the world’s refugees are resettled each year, due to limited global participation and political will.
