The United Nations is reassessing all its programmes in Guinea-Bissau following the 27 November military coup. This standard security and mandate review signals growing international caution, with potential repercussions for humanitarian and development assistance. #UNSystem

🟥 When an institution documents vulnerability year after year,
but leaves people exposed for decades,
documentation alone is not protection.

🔷 2025 is ending. Our situation remains unresolved.
For over a quarter of a century, 115 UNHCR-recognized Afghan mandate refugees in #Kyrgyzstan have lived in a prolonged legal vacuum — without legal status, without rights, and without any durable solution.
Throughout 2025, we documented this reality in full:
•the legal dead end
•the absence of state protection
•the lack of work authorization
•the impossibility of integration
•and the complete absence of resettlement submissions
This is not due to numbers.
115 people is a small, manageable group.
This is not due to law.
International protection frameworks already exist.
This is due to inaction.
Importantly, this reality is not disputed.
In its Central Asia Strategy 2025 (Executive Summary), UNHCR Central Asia explicitly acknowledges that mandate refugees are tolerated but not legally recognized — left without identity documents, basic rights or protection, and exposed to economic shocks, discrimination, abuse, and exploitation.
If this vulnerability is officially recognized,
why has a quarter-century of exposure to harm been allowed to continue?
Why is prolonged legal limbo treated as acceptable policy?
Recognition without protection does not resolve displacement.
Delay does not preserve dignity.
And waiting for “better conditions” has already cost decades.
There is no integration pathway.
There is no safe return.
Resettlement is the only viable solution.
As 2025 closes, we ask donors and decision-makers to acknowledge what this year has clearly confirmed:
without concrete action, prolonged displacement simply continues.
2026 must not become another year added to exile.

🎗️For us, dvt. cannot happen without #women. But when economic power is weakened by #GBV, the path to growth is blocked.
This #SpotlightInitiative, started in 2017 by the #UNSG, is our holistic #UNSystem🇺🇳 response in support of #Gvt🇨🇲 efforts. We’re launching a movement, and we need every everyone, from dvt. partners to the UN family, civil society, private sector, & communities, mobilised.
Joining forces is essential to #EndGBV.”

💡"There is no stability in nature...we either progress or regress. We either continue to fail or start to succeed...The onus is not on the leaders coming next week but on the forces trying to change the international order. The way to resolve the #UNSystem 🇺🇳 is for all of us to take ownership of it."
