The action of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) was a crucial aspect of the assistance provided to refugees in the post-war period. This action developed particularly in the context of complex interactions with major international organizations such as the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). However, historians have so far largely neglected the study of interactions between international institutions. This article attempts to partially fill this gap by analyzing the nature, extent and evolution of relations between NGOs, the International Refugee Organization, the UNHCR and the Intergovernmental Committee for European Migration from 1946 to 1956.
