There are 82.4 million displaced persons in the world today.

The Finnish Refugee Council is Finland’s largest expert organisation specialising in the issues of displacement and migration. Each year, we support thousands of people in recovering from conflicts and integrating into new societies. For over 50 years our work has positively impacted lives in Finland, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Europe.

Every day 25,000 people are forced to flee their homes.
