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.
