A 2020 report from UNHCR found that 1% of people in the world are currently displaced - forced to flee their home because of conflict, persecution or events that have severely disrupted their society. If you’re sheltering in another country, you’re considered a refugee. And if you’re attempting to become a refugee, you’re seeking asylum. Imagine the heartache of losing your home and separating from your family, the fear and desperation of searching for a safe haven, and the anxious uncertainty about your fate in a strange land.
