In July, the Government of Nepal and UNHCR reached agreement on a census of refugees in camps in the country. UNHCR assisted more than 3,300 Tibetans in transit through Nepal, including approximately 2,400 new arrivals. The Office protected and assisted some 350 refugees and asylum-seekers in Kathmandu, including 200 new arrivals, and found durable solutions for them where possible. In the first such case, 16 extremely vulnerable refugees were resettled in third countries. UNHCR supported the search for solutions for the estimated 100,000 to 200,000 internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Nepal. The Office prepared for a comprehensive study on statelessness to be carried out in 2007.
