Refugees are individuals who flee their home countries due to persecution, war, or violence, seeking safety in another country. They often face significant challenges, including the loss of their homes, families, and livelihoods. International laws, such as the 1951 Refugee Convention, protect their rights and outline the responsibilities of host countries. Asylum seekers are people who request protection in a foreign country, claiming they would face harm if they returned home. Their applications for asylum are assessed by the host country, which determines whether they qualify for refugee status. Both groups require support and assistance to rebuild their lives.
