How to use "Refugee" in context?
Refugees are people who flee their home country or region due to fear of persecution or violence. The UN Refugee Convention defines a refugee as "a person who, owing to a well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside the country of his nationality and is unable to or, owing to such fear, desires to return thereto." In 2015, the UNHCR reported that the number of refugees worldwide had reached an all-time high of over 65 million, with the majority of people being found in Syria, Afghanistan, Somalia, Eritrea, and Sudan.
