The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is a global organization dedicated to saving lives, protecting rights, and building a better future for refugees, forcibly displaced communities, and stateless people. Through its efforts, UNHCR helps to mobilize international action, offering necessary protection, shelter, and assistance.  Around 3.5 million people of Afghanistan are internally displaced, having fled their homes searching for refuge within the country. In light of the rapidly deteriorating security situation in 2021, the number of people fleeing will likely continue to rise.
