Of those, 46 million are children — roughly equivalent to
the number of students enrolled in every U.S. public school from kindergarten
to senior year of high school. While over 14.7 million refugees and internally

and Sudan, many did so involuntarily and under fragile conditions.
Today, one in every 70 people worldwide is forcibly
displaced. Behind those numbers are parents doing everything they
can to keep their loved ones safe, children with big dreams missing out on
school, families just trying to rebuild their lives — families like yours and
mine.
