General information about resettlement processing in Kakuma
Resettlement is not a right and only a very small percentage of refugees benefits from resettlement globally.
Only a small number of States take part in UNHCR’s resettlement programme.
Less than one per cent of refugees worldwide are resettled each year.
Resettlement identification in Kakuma is done through AIM (Application for Integrated Management) which is an electronic tool that selects cases based on different criteria. Selection of cases for resettlement can only be done by the AIM application.
If you do become eligible for resettlement at a future date, you will be invited for an interview through SMS at the UNHCR compound.
All of UNHCR’s services are free of charge. You can read more about this here.
