As traditional actors struggle to cope with the global refugee crisis – with ever-increasing numbers of refugees, displaced for longer periods of time – it is clear that the private sector has a more important role than ever before. The Tent Partnership for Refugees works with businesses to develop and implement concrete commitments to support refugees, especially by hiring refugees, integrating them into supply chains, investing in refugees, and delivering services to them. We believe these steps are good for refugees, good for the communities that host them, and good for business.

Companies can improve the livelihoods of refugees by hiring refugees as employees, sourcing from refugee-owned businesses, and sourcing from businesses that employ refugees.
The private sector is uniquely positioned to help end the global refugee crisis. That’s why Tent is bringing businesses, refugee relief organizations, governments, and academia together to amplify business-led initiatives to support refugees. Our partners come from a diverse range of industries, and are making meaningful efforts to help refugees around the globe.
