The term of Filippo Grandi, the current High Commissioner for Refugees (head of the UN refugee agency, UNHCR) ends at the end of 2025. Who will succeed him?
I have compiled a list of nominated candidates with some chance of making it, according to this article:

I will not bet on this market.
Update 2025-12-12 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Market will resolve only when the new High Commissioner officially takes office, not when they are announced or nominated.
Seems like a done deal: https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/former-iraq-president-named-un-refugee-chief-document-shows-2025-12-12/
I will only resolve once he officially takes office
