In order to understand refugees and their plight, you need to understand the global crisis. Today, we're going to map the refugee and Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) crisis using data compiled by Brown University. IDPs are refugees who have had to move within their own country but haven't crossed an international border.

For this project, you will need:

• Refugee and IDP Data form below
• Mapping the Global Crisis form below

Using the Mapping the Global Crisis worksheet, complete the activity.
