Working environmentSecurity challenges continued to shape the protection and operational environment in Pakistan in 2015following the implementation of restrictive counter-terrorism policies.High return rates in the early months of 2015 can be attributed to positive developments in Afghanistan, aswell as difficult circumstances for Afghan refugees in Pakistan and the prevailing uncertainty regarding thecontinued validity of their Proof of Registration (PoR) cards. However, the number of returns slowedconsiderably during the latter part of 2015 due to the deteriorating security situation in Afghanistan.Access to persons of concern was hindered in 2015 due to delays in securing permission to visit refugee andIDP-hosting areas.

Population trendsThe registered Afghan refugee population increased from 1,504,912 to 1,554,910 in 2015 due to the growingnumber of children born in exile.At the end of 2015, the total IDP population stood at 1,146,108 families, with 676,638 individuals havingreturned home.

Achievements and impact In 2015, UNHCR implemented 62 projects through the Refugee Affected and Hosting Areas (RAHA) initiative,which improved the living conditions for close to one million individuals, including 226,190 Afghan refugeesacross various sectors such as education, health, water and sanitation and livelihoods; 50 per cent ofpersons of concern who graduated from the RAHA livelihoods training initiatives are now employed.UNHCR also provided assistance to 112,773 returning IDP families and continued to support families whoremain displaced, including in three IDP camps through targeted assistance in the form of core relief items,tents and winterization kits, as well as grievance desks and protection monitoring. 2015 was also marked by important policy agreements aimed at strengthening the protection and solutionsspace in Pakistan.The Government of Pakistan presented the draft Comprehensive Strategy on Voluntary Repatriation andManagement of Afghan Nationals Beyond 2015, which recommended the extension of PoR cards and theTripartite Agreement until the end of 2017. In addition, both Afghan and Pakistani governments agreed to document Afghans following the issuance oftravel documents by the Government of Afghanistan.The Solution Strategy for Afghan Refugees (SSAR) was extended to support voluntary repatriation,sustainable reintegration and assistance for host countries, with emphasis placed on youth empowerment.The high-level segment on the Afghan refugee situation during the Executive Committee in October 2015provided an important platform to garner support from the international community to implement durablesolutions for Afghan refugees in the region.

Unmet needsDue to funding constraints, UNHCR was unable to reach all urban areas with large concentrations ofrefugees. Additional resources were required to support outreach initiatives for child protection and sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) prevention and response activities.Many schools in the refugee villages remained inadequate and lack of teacher trainings continued tocompromise access to quality education.UNHCR’s health strategy was undermined by limited funding for capacity-building and training activities forhealth workers.Funding shortfalls also hampered the implementation of UNHCR’s livelihoods/skills training programme.
