Welcoming and receiving resettled refugees
The first weeks and months in a receiving society have the potential to overwhelm. At the same time, they lay the foundations for the future. (...) However, care should be taken not to overwhelm resettled refugees, many of whom may be tired after a long journey.

have arrangements in place to ensure that resettled refugees are met and welcomed on arrival at the airport.
ensure that language resources such as trained interpreters are available.
place resettled refugees directly into permanent housing or provide temporary accommodation until permanent accommodation can be secured.
provide resettled refugees with assistance in securing longer term accommodation, where applicable.
have arrangements in place for basic practical orientation as part of the reception process.
have procedures in place for the identification and treatment of health problems.
have sound linkages with settlement agencies and service providers of longer-term integration support such as job readiness.
have measures in place to identify, monitor and offer additional support to resettled refugees with diverse and/or complex needs (consult section on Age, Gender and Diversity for further information).
