Description: The Refugee Population Statistics Database published by
The Office of The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees
(UNHCR) contains information about forcibly displaced
populations spanning more than 70 years of statistical
activities. It covers displaced populations such as refugees,
asylum-seekers and internally displaced people, including their
demographics. Stateless people are also included, most of who
have never been displaced. The database also reflects the
different types of solutions for displaced populations such as
repatriation or resettlement. More information on the data and
methodology can be found on the UNHCR Refugee Data Finder
.
