Global displaced population drops for first time in a decade

The number of forcibly displaced people worldwide decreased to 117.8 million by the end of 2025 for the first time in a decade, representing a decline of 5.4 million compared to the end of 2024. This decrease is primarily due to an increase in voluntary returns of refugees and internally displaced persons, especially in countries such as Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sudan, and Syria, with the UNHCR emphasizing that many of these returns occurred under unsafe conditions. Additionally, the number of new asylum applications and asylum seekers has risen. The total number of stateless persons reached 4.5 million, with 92% of internally displaced persons remaining concentrated in six countries.
