What is another word for detention camp?
Pronunciation: [dɪtˈɛnʃən kˈamp] (IPA) 
In recent years, detention camps have gained increased attention due to their use for migrants and refugees in different countries. However, the use of the term "detention camp" has been criticized as it implies that the individuals are being detained as criminals, even if they have not committed any crime. Therefore, other synonyms have been suggested, such as holding center, reception center, holding facility, and immigration center. Some organizations and activists prefer using terms such as refugee camps, displacement centers, and protection sites, which highlight the humanitarian focus of the facilities and avoid the negative connotations associated with detention. The name given to a camp can have a significant impact on how it is perceived and the level of support it receives from the public.
