Geneva – Conflict and violence drove more people to flee within their own countries last year than natural and human-caused disasters for the first time on record, monitors said on Tuesday.

The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre and the Norwegian Refugee Council said in their annual report on the subject that at the end of 2025, 82.2 million people were living in internal displacement worldwide.

The figure is just under the highest number ever recorded in 2024.
