Forced displacement

Forced displacement is when people are forced to leave their homes, either by the government or other people. A common example is war, when soldiers force people to flee their homes to escape violence and danger. Displaced people can also be forced to leave their homes because of things like natural disasters, poverty, discrimination, and religious beliefs. In all cases, people are forced to leave their homes against their will and they often have to leave with nothing but the clothes on their backs.
