Data only reflects refugees under UNHCR’s mandate. In addition, there are 6 million Palestinian refugees under UNRWA’s mandate not reflected here.
The Refugee Project is a learning experience created to increase awareness about the plight of millions of people just like you around the world who have had no choice but to flee their homes.
The Refugee Project was created by Hyperakt and Ekene Ijeoma. Special thanks to the UNHCR for providing access to over 50 years of refugee migration data, their complete digital archive of published refugee stories and original photography.
