Temporary refugee status can last a lifetime. In Switzerland more than 20,000 refugees, from different parts of the world, live with a temporary "humanitarian" residence permit. 11,000 of them have been living here for more than seven years. For them and their children, even those born here, finding a regular job and building a stable life is really hard. (swissinfo, Raffaella Rossello)
