The primary driver of displacement is ongoing conflicts, particularly in Sudan, Myanmar, and Ukraine. The return of Syrian refugees demonstrates that peace, or at least cessation of fighting, can lead to significant reductions in displacement. However, UNHCR warns that the intensity of ongoing conflicts will determine future displacement numbers.

What factors contributed to the increase in both refugee returns and overall displacement in 2024?

The increase in refugee returns, particularly from Syria, contrasts with the overall rise in global displacement. While the total number of displaced people increased by 7 million to 123.2 million in 2024 compared to the previous year, the return of 1.6 million international refugees represents a significant positive development. This suggests that specific political or security changes can influence return migration.

How does the case of Samjung illustrate broader patterns of climate change impacts on high-altitude communities?

Samjung's displacement exemplifies the impact of climate change on high-altitude communities in the Hindu Kush Himalayas. The region's warming temperatures cause glacial retreat and altered weather patterns, directly affecting water availability for agriculture and daily life.

How do short-term rentals contribute to the housing crisis in Northern Ireland, and what are the broader societal impacts?

The increased demand for housing during major events like The Open leads to inflated rental prices, forcing long-term residents from their homes to make way for short-term holiday rentals. This trend, observable in other areas of the UK and Europe, demonstrates a systemic failure to balance the economic benefits of tourism with the needs of local communities. The consequence is the displacement of families and the potential depopulation of affected areas.
