Durable solutions to refugee flows include voluntary repatriation, voluntary host country integration and voluntary third country resettlement. Of the three solutions only repatriation or return is recognized as an individual right under international law. The international community considers voluntary return to be the must durable solution to refugee flows. Voluntariness or refugee choice is the key principle governing these solutions. Refugees also have an individual right to housing and property restitution and compensation for damages and losses.
 

National authorities hold the primary responsibility for the provision of protection within their borders. International protection is required when states are either unable or unwilling to act on their obligations to protect refugees and IDPs. International protection activities include ensuring asylum, securing basic human rights, provision of travel documents, and monitoring the treatment of refugees once they return home to ensure provision of national protection. Protection activities also include the promotion of international refugee law, helping states to enact or revise national legislation, and assistance in strengthening relevant legal and judicial institutions.
 

International Assistance activities are closely related to protection and include provision of food, shelter, health and education services.
