Ungoverned, Unfair, Unacceptable: A UN Solution to Refugee Distribution

Abstract

This article addresses the pressing issue of refugee and asylum seeker distribution, highlighting the flaws in current policies that rely on a limited number of countries to bear the burden of refugees. It proposes a globally unified approach coordi-nated by the United Nations, utilizing an algorithm based on GDP, population density, and habitable land size to ensure equitable distribution. The paper emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive strategy that includes incentive-based systems, long-term planning, and holistic assessments to create a fair and humane refugee distribution process.
