“No one plans to become a refugee—to flee your home because your life is in danger. Yet today, there are 25.9 million refugees, more than the world has seen in nearly a century.
There are many reasons a person might become a refugee.
Maybe you live in a country torn apart by war, and your house was bombed to rubble.
Maybe you live in a place where you and your family are being attacked for your religious beliefs.
Maybe you live in a region plagued by famine, and you are facing starvation.
Or maybe you are like 15 year old Bilan [BEE-lawn], and you were chased from your home by violence.
