Most likely, they cannot return home or are afraid to do so. War and ethnic, tribal and religious violence are leading causes of refugees fleeing their countries.

Refugees are those forced to flee their country due to persecution, war or violence. They often have had to flee with little more than the clothes on their back, leaving behind homes, possessions, jobs and loved ones.

Refugees are defined and protected in international law. The 1951 Refugee Convention is a key legal document and defines a refugee as:

“someone who is unable or unwilling to return to their country of origin owing to a well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group, or political opinion.”

Refugees are people who have fled war, violence, conflict or persecution and have crossed an international border to find safety in another country.
Refugees are defined and protected in international law. And seeking asylum is not a crime. While every refugee is initially an asylum seeker, not every asylum seeker will ultimately be recognized as a refugee.
There are more refugees in the world than ever before. About 26.4 million people have fled their countries because of conflict, violence, persecution, or human rights violations.
They often have had to flee with little more than the clothes on their back, leaving behind homes, possessions, jobs and loved ones.
