RRI Implementation Process

Development process and methodology
The RRI was conceived as a comprehensive composite index of countries’ response in relation to refugees. Through detailed research and ongoing consultation with a broad range of experts, the analytical framework was created.
The methodology has been further refined through regional workshops in Jordan, Mexico and Ethiopia with participants from UN agencies, (I)NGOs, donor agencies and civil society representatives.
It comprises 6 pillars that assess how states;
- Behave towards refugees in flight;
- Provide legal recognition of their status;
- Uphold the political, social and economic rights of refugees and
facilitate coverage of their needs; - Create conditions for their integration, including challenging
negative public misconceptions; - Contribute to the international refugee system; and
- Facilitate durable solutions.
