As of April 2025, the number of forcibly displaced individuals globally has escalated to 122.1 million, representing a significant increase over the previous year, according to a UNHCR report. While some are returning to countries like Syria, severe conflicts in regions such as Sudan, Myanmar, and Ukraine continue to drive displacement. Internally displaced persons (IDPs) have surged to 73.5 million, highlighting that a majority remain within their countries. The plight of refugees is compounded by reduced aid funding, troubling the UNHCR, which emphasizes that wealthier nations often misunderstand their role in hosting refugees.
According to a report by the UNHCR, the global forcibly displaced population reached 122.1 million in April 2025, marking the highest level in ten years.
The primary drivers of displacement are ongoing conflicts in regions such as Sudan, Myanmar, and Ukraine, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis.
