Global Insights: The Challenge of Forced Displacement

According to the UN refugee agency, there are currently 80 million people in the world who have had to flee their homes because of conflict or persecution, or the equivalent of 1 percent of the world population. The number of displaced has never been higher in history, and yet it doesn’t even include those who are stateless, Indigenous populations who were forced from their traditional territories as a result of colonization, or those who are facing no choice but to move because of climate change.
