The Syrian Crisis

The World’s Largest Forcibly Displaced Population

Overview

Syrians are the largest forcibly displaced population globally, with 90% in poverty and 11 million lacking essential resources after a decade of conflict. Syria’s collapsed healthcare system worsens the crisis, and only 46% of humanitarian needs are met despite international aid. Of the 6.8 million refugees who have fled, many have reshaped neighboring countries.

The Human Development Fund (HDF) has supported over one million refugees in Turkey and Jordan.
