Abstract

This paper’s primary goal is to present a novel transdisciplinary (TD) methodology for the
resettlement of refugees. Numerous factors, such as budgetary and cost concerns, federal law and policy,
administrative difficulties, security screening protocols, education and training, housing and health, crime
rate, socioeconomic issues, and many more, can be considered that influence the refugee resettlement
process. Refugee resettlement is a complex matter with numerous factors to consider. Using the Interactive
Collective Intelligent Management (ICIM) Workshop, the working group developed transdisciplinary collective
intelligence to investigate the issue. The Nominal Group Technique (NGT) was used to develop and clarify
a list of issues about the complex issue through the survey. A condensed example of refugee resettlement
that has ten TD solutions and six complex issue challenges created with ICIM. Using TD integrated tools,
TD solutions to create effective administrative processes that will significantly affect the challenging issues
associated with refugee resettlement have been examined.
