18. Recalls the global compact on refugees as set out in the High
Commissioner’s annual report (part II) of 2018, 8 affirmed on 17 December 2018, 9 and
calls upon the international community as a whole, including States and other relevant
stakeholders, to implement the compact in order to achieve its four objectives on an
equal footing based on the principle of burden- and responsibility-sharing, and in
accordance with the guiding principles and paragraph 4 of the global compact on
refugees, through concrete actions, pledges and contributions, including at the first
Global Refugee Forum in December 2019, and requests the High Commission er to
report regularly on the progress being made;

and potential, complementary mechanisms for ensuring predictable, equitable,
efficient and effective burden- and responsibility-sharing in the context of the global
compact on refugees;
20. Notes with appreciation the efforts made by the increased number of
countries applying the comprehensive refugee response framework that is part of the
global compact on refugees, including through regional approaches, where applicable,
such as the comprehensive regional protection and solutions framework (MIRPS) and
the Intergovernmental Authority on Development regional approach;
21. Renews its call upon all States and other relevant stakeholders to provide
the necessary support for the implementation of the global compact on refugees and
its comprehensive refugee response framework with a view to sharing the burden and
responsibilities for hosting and supporting refugees, while recognizing contributions
already made, and underscores the critical importance of additional development
support over and above regular development assistance for host countries and
countries of origin;
22. Invites the High Commissioner to continue coordinating the effort to
measure the impact arising from hosting, protecting and assisting refugees, with a
view to assessing gaps in international cooperation and promoting burden - and
responsibility-sharing that is more equitable, predictable and sustainable, and to
report on the results to Member States in 2020;

burden- and responsibility-sharing to do so, with a view to broadening the support
base, in a spirit of international solidarity and cooperation;
24. Welcomes the active engagement of the Office of the High Commissioner
in the United Nations development system reform, including as part of broader efforts
towards generating system-wide efficiencies;
