  • How many internally displaced refugees are there in the world?

  • How many return to their home country? How many remain in their host country?

Choose a country where forced migration is a problem and find out more about the present-day situation, and the causes and possible consequences of this movement of people. Ask yourself questions such as:

  • What type of conflict or crisis does this country face?
  • What is the number of refugees and internally displaced people from this country?
  • Why have people been forced to leave their homes?
  • What are the possible short and long-term consequences of this forced migration?
