The Note on International Protection provides an account of the state of international protection over the year to May 2007. It assesses how States, the Office of the High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and partners have performed in fulfilling their responsibilities to protect refugees, returnees, stateless persons and others of concern. This year, the Note again follows the framework of the 2002 Agenda for Protection, reporting on progress in meeting its six Goals, as well as on developments regarding statelessness. The protection of internally displaced persons (IDPs) is given greater prominence than in previous Notes.
