Will it surprise you to learn that 70.8 million people around the world have been forced from their home, representing the highest levels of displaced people on record? (UN Refugee Agency)

Among those displaced by conflict, persecution and disasters are nearly 25.9 million refugees and half are under the age of 18. Because developing countries host nearly 85% of refugees the risk of disease and illness expands with poor living conditions.
