Methodology
This list includes:
- Refugees as defined by international law
- Asylum seekers
- Individuals under temporary protection programs
- Crisis-driven migrants (e.g., Venezuelan displacement)
Figures are approximate and based on data reported by international organizations such as the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the Regional Inter-Agency Coordination Platform for Refugees and Migrants from Venezuela (R4V), as well as national migration authorities.[2][4]

Notes
- In Latin America, many displaced individuals are not formally classified as refugees but are granted temporary protection status.
- Countries such as Peru and Colombia host large numbers of Venezuelan migrants, making them among the largest displacement hosts globally despite lower official refugee counts.
