At the end of 2019, the total population of concern to UNHCR stood at 86.5 million people.
This included people who have been forcibly displaced (refugees, asylum-seekers, internally displaced
people and Venezuelans displaced abroad); those who have found a durable solution (returnees) within
the previous year; stateless individuals, most of whom have never been forcibly displaced; and other
groups of concern to whom UNHCR has extended its protection or provided assistance on a
humanitarian basis. Therefore, this categorization is different from the 79.5 million forcibly displaced
people worldwide – a figure that includes refugees and other displaced people not covered by
UNHCR’s mandate and excludes other categories such as returnees and non-displaced stateless
people. A detailed breakdown of UNHCR’s population of concern by category and country is provided
in Annex Table 1.
