It is your responsibility to get through the year, with at most 10 million unhelped refugees at the end of the year without running out of budget. It is expected that every quarter of the year there is an expendure of $1.5 billion for ongoing projects, and an increase of 7 million refugees as a result of ongoing unrest. Each quartel you also get the oppurtunity to lobby with countries to either increase the budget or help for refugees. Finally, there is a chance that throughout the year different unexpected crises will present themselves, increasing the number of refugees. There are no definite right or wrong answers, only answers that have a better chance of succeeding!
