The Office sought durable solutions for refugees in Nepal, notably through large-scale resettlement, while simultaneously ensuring adequate protection and assistance in the camps. Projects were initiated to improve local services for refugees and host communities. UNHCR also sought to provide international protection to all refugees and
asylum-seekers, with particular attention to those with specific needs. The Office assisted Tibetans in transit through Nepal, worked to ensure their access to protection, and lobbied for greater legal integration for long-staying Tibetan
refugees. UNHCR also continued with efforts to prevent and reduce statelessness, including working closely with the Constituent Assembly, the Government and civil society to ensure that the new Constitution meets international standards regarding equal, non-discriminatory and effective access to citizenship.
