Costa Rica is one of the most welcoming countries in the Central American region in terms of proportion of refugees. In 2013, it hosted more than 12.700 refugees, most of which arrived from Colombia.

RET, headquartered in Geneva, with offices around the world, was founded in December 2000 by Mrs Sadako Ogata, then United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. RET is an independent, impartial, non-partisan organisation, with no religious or political affiliation. Although financially independent from UN agencies, we have strategic alliances with UNHCR, UNESCO-IBE, UNICEF, IOM among others.
