Global report on law and policy on internal displacement: implementing national responsibility

Over 75 million people were estimated to be internally displaced by the end of 2023 due to conflict, disasters, human rights violations and violence, according to the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre. New conflicts arise before others are resolved, and many are becoming prolonged situations, in which human rights are frequently and systematically violated. Meanwhile, 75 per cent of the forcibly displaced globally are currently living in locations exposed to high or extreme risks of climate change events, which occur more often and with greater severity.
