Resumen
Desarrolla la investigación sobre las acciones que ha realizado el Estado Costarricense para el período 2014-2019 en el marco del Plan de Acción de Brasil en favor de la protección de la población solicitante de la condición de refugiado y refugiada en el país. La finalidad del estudio es analizar los compromisos que ha asumido el Estado en material de refugio, según sus obligaciones internacionales y legislación nacional para identificar los alcances y limitaciones en la atención en ámbitos educativos, sanitarios, laborales, de procedimiento y acceso a la justicia para esta población. Se pretende aportar a la construcción del concomiendo en torno al tema de refugio, ya que la migración es un tema de interés público. Se considera el escenario de Costa Rica por ser una país que alberga la mayor cantidad de refugiados y solicitudes de asilo en la región centroamericana, según datos de la ACNUR (2017).
Desde la cooperación internacional, el tema de refugio se ha abordado a través de la voluntad política, la distribución de la carga y la responsabilidad compartida. El Presidente Carlos Alvardo ha expresado la necesidad de la cooperación internacional para garantizar la sostenibilidad financiera de los programas de asistencia social. "Necesitamos ayuda para cumplir nuestra tarea, si no le estamos fallando a los más vulnerables. Los refugiados se han convertido en una parte vulnerable de nuestra sociedad, la cooperación debe ser encajada en esta realidad" (Casa Presidencial, 2019)
