The conflict-induced displacement in June 2010 of some 300,000 people in southern Kyrgyzstan and the flight across the border into Uzbekistan of another 75,000 people compelled UNHCR to mobilize an emergency response operation in a highly complex political and security environment. Thanks to the construction of 1,780 emergency transitional shelters in Kyrgyzstan, UNHCR was able to provide more than 13,400 returnees with durable, safe and warm shelters before the onset of winter. The shelter programme also helped facilitate refugees’ return to their places of origin.
