World Refugee Day 2008: Displacement "Hotspots"
 Displaying courage and strength in the face of destruction and oppression that most will never know, refugees travel many painful miles to find a place they can call home.
Whether forced to flee because of a natural disaster or due to political persecution, 21 million people worldwide are now displaced.
Darfur: Violence Escalates, Charity Programs Expand
 Since early February, violence in Darfur has dramatically escalated, resembling levels of five years ago when the conflict began.
Still, Global Impact member charities work to meet the immediate needs of refugees, despite considerable risks.
Iraq: Getting Worse Every Day
 The UN High Commissioner for Refugees calls Iraq "the biggest displacement crisis in the Middle East." More than 4.7 million have been uprooted by increasing violence; half have sought safety in neighboring Syria, Jordan, Egypt and Lebanon.
Colombia: 50 Years of Conflict and Displacement
 A decades-long territorial battle between the army, paramilitaries and rebel forces has made Colombia one of the world's worst refugee hotspots. Over the years, as many as 3.8 million people have been internally displaced and close to half a million have fled to other countries.
