refugee
A refugee is a person who has been forced to leave their home country due to fear of persecution, war, or violence. They often seek safety in another country, hoping to escape dangerous situations that threaten their lives or freedom. Refugees may come from various backgrounds and face numerous challenges as they adjust to new environments.
International laws, such as the 1951 Refugee Convention, provide protections for refugees, ensuring they are not returned to places where they face harm. Organizations like the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) work to support refugees by providing assistance, shelter, and resources to help them rebuild their lives.
