Displacement refers to the forced movement of individuals or groups from their homes, often due to conflict, natural disasters, or persecution. This phenomenon can lead to significant social and economic challenges for those affected, as they may lose their homes, livelihoods, and access to essential services.
The impact of displacement is profound, not only on the displaced individuals but also on host communities and nations. Displaced persons often seek safety and stability, leading to complex humanitarian needs and requiring coordinated responses from governments and organizations like UNHCR to provide assistance and support for resettlement and integration.
