George Soros, the chairman and founder of the Open Society Foundations,
pledged up to $500 million of his own private capital to aid the global
crisis of forced migration.“I’m a refugee myself,” Soros said at the Concordia Summit in New York. Soros was a teenager when the Nazis occupied Hungary. He moved to London in 1947.“In those days, there were fewer of us around and we were better treated,” he said.The
86-year-old hedge fund manager pointed out that the current refugee
crisis is new, but economic migration has been going on forever.He
considers the refugee and migration crisis “the most pressing problem,”
and it’s one of his top priorities. His pledge of $500 million is his
answer to President Barack Obama’s “call to action” for US companies to
play a bigger role in meeting the challenges posed by refugees and
migration.The
money Soros pledged will be used to invest in startups, companies,
social impact initiatives and businesses started by refugees. The
investments will be held by Soros’ non-profit organization, and the
profits will fund Open Society Foundation programs, including ones that
benefit refugees.His plan to solve the refugee crisis is built on his seven pillars that include:The
European Union (EU) must take on a substantial number of refugees
directly from front-line countries in a secure orderly way. This will be
far more acceptable than the current disorder.The EU must regain control of its borders. There is little that scares and alienates the public more than scenes of chaos.The
EU must have a way to generate economic growth. We estimate refugees
will require $30 billion a year for several years. The plan explains the
benefits of what he calls “surge funding.”The EU must build a common mechanism to protect borders.We
need a voluntary matching mechanism to relocate refugees. The EU can’t
coerce EU states to accept refugees they don’t want. Canada sets a
standard. This shows how far the EU has to go.The
EU must offer far greater support to countries outside its borders that
host large numbers of refugees. It must be more generous to Africa. It
must offer genuine grand bargain, creating jobs in African countries
where some migrants originate, which would reduce the number that wants
to migrate.Create
a welcoming environment for migrants. All evidence shows migrants can
contribute significantly to innovation and development if they are given
the chance to do so.—
