RESOLVES: 1. To revitalize implementation of the “borders of solidarity”, “solidarity cities” and “solidarity resettlement” programmes of the 2004 Mexico Plan of Action to Strengthen the International Protection of Refugees in Latin America, with the support of the international community, as necessary. 2. To promote the exchange of good practices and lessons learned throughout the region within the framework of the Mexico Declaration and Plan of Action which could be useful for the care and protection of refugees and internally displaced persons and the search for durable solutions. 3. To recommend applying the Mexico Plan of Action as the regional framework to address new challenges related to the identification and the protection of refugees in the context of mixed migratory movements. 4. To recognize the importance of achieving durable solutions for refugees and, in particular, the need to address the fundamental root causes of refugee displacement, in order to avoid new refugee flows. 5. To promote accession in the hemisphere to the international instruments for the protection of refugees and, in this regard, to call on States that have not yet done so to consider speedy accession to these instruments. 6. To consider the possibility of adopting appropriate national protection mechanisms to address new situations not foreseen by the international instruments for the protection of refugees, giving due consideration to the protection needs of migrants and victims of trafficking, including whether they are in need of international protection as refugees. 7. To urge countries in the Americas to consider acceding to the international instruments on statelessness, reviewing their national legislation to prevent and reduce situations of statelessness, and strengthening national mechanisms for comprehensive birth registration. 8. To promote the values of solidarity, respect, tolerance and multiculturalism, underscoring the non-political and humanitarian nature of the protection of refugees, internally displaced persons and stateless persons, and recognizing their rights and obligations as well as their positive contributions to society. 9. To recognize the importance of greater opportunities for regular migration and policies that respect the human rights of migrants, regardless of their migration status, for preserving the space for refugee protection. 10. To promote assessment of the protection needs of separated or unaccompanied children, including their need for international protection as refugees, and the establishment of national mechanisms for the determination of the best interests of the child. 3
