Resilience for All

Strengthening Armenia’s response to displacement, for refugees and host communities alike.

The Challenge

Large-scale displacement placed sudden, sustained pressure on Armenia’s humanitarian and social systems. Refugees and vulnerable populations needed housing, jobs, healthcare, education, and legal support, while host communities and local institutions had to absorb rapid population increases without losing social cohesion or public service quality.

Our Approach

Resilience for All took a whole-system approach to displacement: combining digital public services, human-centered design of frontline integration pathways, and behavioral insights to support both newcomers and the communities receiving them. We worked closely with the Migration and Citizenship Service to make sure the work strengthened (not bypassed) Armenia’s own institutions.

Key Innovations

• Digitally-enabled access to housing, healthcare, education, legal protection, and employment pathways
• Human-centered redesign of integration services for displaced people
• Strengthened local governance coordination between institutions and partners
• Behaviorally-informed approaches to social cohesion between displaced and host populations

Outcomes & Impact

Strengthened national capacity to respond to displacement and social shocks; vulnerable people connected to housing, healthcare, education, legal protection, and employment pathways; more resilient local governance systems; reduced pressure on host communities; and improved social cohesion through inclusive support that treats displaced populations and residents as part of the same society.
