New York Declaration for Refugees and Migrants A/RES/71/1 Durable solutions 9. We recognize that millions of refugees around the world at present have no access to timely and durable solutions, the securing of which is one of the principal goals of international protection. The success of the search for solutions depends in large measure on resolute and sustained international cooperation and support. 10. We believe that actions should be taken in pursuit of the following durable solutions: voluntary repatriation, local solutions and resettlement and complementary pathways for admission. These actions should include the elements set out below. 11. We reaffirm the primary goal of bringing about conditions that would help refugees return in safety and dignity to their countries and emphasize the need to tackle the root causes of violence and armed conflict and to achieve necessary political solutions and the peaceful settlement of disputes, as well as to assist in reconstruction efforts. In this context, States of origin/nationality would: (a) Acknowledge that everyone has the right to leave any country, including his or her own, and to return to his or her country; (b) Respect this right and also respect the obligation to receive back their nationals, which should occur in a safe, dignified and humane manner and with full respect for human rights in accordance with obligations under international law; (c) Provide necessary identification and travel documents; (d) Facilitate the socioeconomic reintegration of returnees; (e) Consider measures to enable the restitution of property. 12. To ensure sustainable return and reintegration, States, United Nations organizations and relevant partners would: (a) Recognize that the voluntary nature of repatriation is necessary as long as refugees continue to require international protection, that is, as long as they cannot regain fully the protection of their own country; (b) Plan for and support measures to encourage voluntary and informed repatriation, reintegration and reconciliation; (c) Support countries of origin/nationality, where appropriate, including through funding for rehabilitation, reconstruction and development, an d with the necessary legal safeguards to enable refugees to access legal, physical and other support mechanisms needed for the restoration of national protection and their reintegration; (d) Support efforts to foster reconciliation and dialogue, particula rly with refugee communities and with the equal participation of women and youth, and to ensure respect for the rule of law at the national and local levels; (e) Facilitate the participation of refugees, including women, in peace and reconciliation processes, and ensure that the outcomes of such processes duly support their return in safety and dignity; (f) Ensure that national development planning incorporates the specific needs of returnees and promotes sustainable and inclusive reintegration, as a measure to prevent future displacement. 13. Host States, bearing in mind their capacities and international legal obligations, in cooperation with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for 19/24
