The bureaucratization of refugee sponsorship

  • Summary

  • In this episode, we are joined by Lynn Weaver (senior program manager at the Canadian Sponsorship Agreement Holders Association) to discuss the benefits and risks of the bureaucratization of refugee sponsorship. The staring point of the conversation is the relationship between civil society and government and the gradual evolution of the Private Sponsorship of Refugees Program. We then zoom in on different aspects of the PSRP, such as the requirements for sponsoring organizations and individual refugee sponsors, program integrity, accountability, and risk management. Lastly, we discuss the impact of bureaucracy on refugee sponsorship programs and provide recommendations for policy makers and practitioners in Canada and abroad.
