The number of refugees, asylum-seekers, and internally displaced people around the world has topped 65 million according to UNHCR. Increased terrorist groups like Boko Haram and al-Shabaab, civil conflicts in Syria and the Middle East, and economic disparities have spurred a complex web of migration routes globally. Amidst these migration flows women and children are affected disproportionately, facing a greater risk of sexual violence and trafficking, economic exploitation, and emotional trauma.
