Repatriation and Reintegration
in War-Torn Sri Lanka
by
Hiram A. Ruiz
Policy Analyst
U.S. Committee for Refugees
January 1994
This report is based, in part, on a U.S. Committee for Refugees (USCR) site visit to Sri Lanka and India in September
1993. It was edited by Virginia Hamilton and produced by Koula Papanicolas.
The U.S. Committee for Refugees operates under a three-part mandate:
to defend the basic human rights of refugees, most fundamentally, the principle of nonrefoulement, no forced return
of a person with a well-founded fear of persecution to his or her homeland;
*   to defend the rights of asylum seekers to a fair and impartial determination of their status for refugee protection;
*   to defend the right of decent and humane treatment for all displaced persons, the uprooted victims of human
conflict.
The U.S. Committee for Refugees receives no government funding. USCR is grateful for the important support it
receives from the Ford Foundation, the Pew Charitable Trusts, the Soros Foundation, the Andrew W. Mellon Founda-
tion, the Joyce Mertz-Gilmore Foundation, the John Merck Fund, and the J. Roderick MacArthur Foundation. USCR is
also grateful to many individual contributors.
