In an instant, life has changed for tens of millions

Stop for a moment. Breathe. This hasn’t been a normal 12 months by anyone’s measure. The pandemic has made the world a different place. But for tens of millions of people — life was already at crisis point.

They’re fleeing conflict, climate change, chronic hunger and now, dealing with a health crisis. There are more refugees and displaced people in the world today than at any other time in history. In fact, 79.5 million people have been forced from their homes and 40% of them are children.
