Innovating refugee response: How the Netherlands built the PROSPECTS Partnership
The third episode of the Refugees at Work series turns to the critical role of donors in advancing inclusive and sustainable responses to forced displacement. Ana Uzelac reflects on how the Netherlands has pioneered new approaches through the PROSPECTS partnership, shifting from short-term humanitarian aid to multi-annual development financing that prioritizes refugee self-reliance and host community resilience. The conversation explores what sets PROSPECTS apart from traditional donor instruments, the added value of joint programming among international organizations, and the legacy such models can leave for policy, practice, and the lives of refugees and their hosts.
