Display A Chart with Refugee Recognition Rate for nationals from a specific country

Description

In the absence of an internationally agreed methodology for calculating recognition rates, UNHCR uses two rates to compute the proportion of refugee claims accepted during the year:

* The Refugee Recognition Rate divides the number of asylum-seekers granted Convention refugee status by the total number of accepted (Convention and, where relevant, complementary protection) and rejected cases (aka substantive decision).

* The Total Recognition Rate divides the number of asylum-seekers granted Convention refugee status and / or complementary form of protection by the total number of accepted (Convention and, where relevant, complementary protection) and rejected cases.

Non-substantive decisions are, to the extent possible, excluded from both calculations. For the purpose of international comparability, UNHCR only uses these two recognition rates and does not report nationally calculated rates.

Usage

plot_ctr_origin_recognition(
  year = 2022,
  country_origin_iso3c,
  top_n_countries = 10,
  measure = "RefugeeRecognitionRate",
  order_by = "TotalDecided"
)

Arguments

year	Numeric value of the year (for instance 2020)
country_origin_iso3c	Character value with the ISO-3 character code of the Country of Origin
top_n_countries	Numeric value of number of main countries that the graph should display
measure	this can be either: * RefugeeRecognitionRate * TotalRecognitionRate
order_by	this can be either: * Recognized * ComplementaryProtection * TotalDecided

Value

a ggplot2 object

Examples

plot_ctr_origin_recognition(year = 2022,
                     country_origin_iso3c = "VEN",
                     top_n_countries = 10,
