The DRC Registration Roster

About the DRC Registration and Identity Management Deployment Scheme

Registration and identification of refugees and people of concern are key to knowing who has arrived, and based on this, to facilitate access to basic assistance and protection. The process of registration provides comprehensive data to identify needs within a population and to plan programmes including shelter, food and water assistance. Registration data is also an important tool in ensuring the integrity of refugee protection systems and preventing and combating fraud, corruption, and crime.

Since June 2019, DRC has supported UNHCR’s work within registration and identity management of asylum-seekers, refugees and other persons of concern by facilitating the mobilization and deployment of experts. Our experts are deployed to UNHCR operations globally, at short notice, to assist with the important work of registration and verification of refugees and their needs.
