Displaced In Northern Iraq

There are an estimated 4.2 million uprooted people in Iraq - more than in any other country in the world. The flow of people to neighbouring states and individual governorates is becoming too great a burden. The northern region of Iraq has become the destination of choice for those who have little money, but entry is restricted.

Surviving In Iraq

It's estimated that more than 2 million people are displaced in Iraq. The UN refugee agency is trying to help the most vulnerable get their papers in order.

Egyptian actor and UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Adel Imam recently visited Iraqi refugees in Syria. Imam praised the Syrian government for its hospitality and for opening its schools to Iraqi students.
