Extract:

The mass migration crisis and massive displacement of populations due to protracted conflicts worldwide has heightened the risk of sexual violence. We see the acute vulnerability of refugees and internally displaced persons not only within camps or settlements, but at every stage of displacement, and how sexual violence may be a significant factor driving vulnerable from their homes and communities.
