Recent research from the OECD and UNHCR highlights the significant contributions of migrants and refugees to key sectors of Costa Rica’s economy, including agriculture, construction, tourism, and manufacturing. The studies emphasize the indispensable role these individuals play in these industries. Better integration of refugees within Costa Rica is not solely a humanitarian obligation, according to the reports. It is also presented as a strategically sound decision for national development and economic growth. The findings suggest that facilitating the full participation of refugees in the workforce benefits the entire country. Effectively incorporating this population boosts productivity and strengthens Costa Rica’s overall economic standing. These organizations urge further efforts towards inclusive policies and programs.
