Displacement Due to Conflict

Displacement due to conflict occurs when individuals or communities are forced to leave their homes because of violence, war, or instability. Safety threats, destruction of property, and lack of essential resources prompt people to seek refuge elsewhere. This movement may be temporary or permanent, resulting in refugees or internally displaced persons. Such displacement disrupts lives, affecting access to education, healthcare, and livelihoods, and often leads to long-term social and economic challenges for the affected populations and hosting communities.
