In 2022, the number of people displaced due to armed conflict and violence worldwide had a huge increase in comparison to the years before. 28.3 million people around the world had to flee their homes because of conflict and violence that year, double the amount of the previous year. This is partly explained by the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, but also by other violent conflicts such as violence and terrorism in the Sahel.
