Access Help: UNHCR Resources
The UNHCR Help South Africa webpage is a platform created as a central point – a one-stop shop – where refugees, asylum-seekers and stateless persons can find or be signposted to relevant protection information and services available to them in South Africa.
The objective of the page is to ensure that all people of diverse backgrounds have access to timely, accurate, and relevant information on their rights and entitlements, and UNHCR and its partners’ programmes. The page will be updated regularly and more information will be uploaded as the need arises. You can access the page by clicking here or by typing in your browser: help.unhcr.org/southafrica OR help.unhcr.org/sa.
Some of the page features include information about:
How to apply for asylum in South Africa
Where to get free Legal Assistance
How to enrol your child in school
Where to seek help if you experience violence
Social assistance and sports programmes
Covid-19 vaccines and updates
