An evaluation of policy responses to refugee resettlement in rural Canada
(Rural Development Institute, Brandon University, 2023) Haugen, Stacey; McNally, Rachel; Hallström, Lars
While refugees across the globe are largely destined for resettlement in large, urban centres, the expansion of government policies, such as community sponsorship models and regionalization, and informal mechanisms, including family reunification, have resulted in an increase in resettlement in rural and smaller places. Utilizing a scoping review method, this project undertook an extensive review of the literature on rural resettlement and integration in Canada. Funded by the Government of Canada, this project reviews the policy choices available to Canadian policymakers working to support the successful resettlement and integration of refugees outside of major urban centres.
