Forced migration has accompanied persecution, as well as war, throughout human history but has only become a topic of serious study and discussion relatively recently. This increased attention is the result of greater ease of travel, allowing displaced persons to flee to nations far removed from their homes, the creation of an international legal structure of human rights, and the realizations that the destabilizing effects of forced migration, especially in parts of Africa, the Middle East, south and central Asia, ripple out well beyond the immediate region.
FMO has adopted the definition of ‘forced migration’ promoted by the International Association for the Study of Forced Migration (IASFM) which describes it as ‘a general term that refers to the movements of refugees and internally displaced people (those displaced by conflicts) as well as people displaced by natural or environmental disasters, chemical or nuclear disasters, famine, or development projects.’ FMO views forced migration as a complex, wide-ranging and pervasive set of phenomena. The study of forced migration is multidisciplinary, international, and multisectoral, incorporating academic, practitioner, agency and local perspectives. FMO focuses on three separate, although sometimes simultaneous and inter-related, types of forced migration. These three types are categorized according to their causal factors: conflict, development policies and projects, and disasters.

Refugees around the world constitute millions of people. Migrant and refugee communities need helping hand from your community to prevent and resolve conflicts, and to help achieve security and peace.
Migration – the temporary or permanent movement of people from one place to another.
Migration impacts on population change. It is difficult to account for this population change as much migration is illegal and not accounted for. The government often underestimate the number of migrants to help boost support, while the press often overestimate the number of migrants to sell sensational news articles.
Migration is a common phenomenon.The world is shrinking. The world is becoming a global village.Country boundaries and barriers no longer restrict people movement.

Armed groups, the 'Sudan Liberation Army' (SLA) and 'Justice and Equality Movement' (JEM), began the war. Reasons are cited as lack of economic development which demands a greater share of country’s resources and exclusion from the political administration of Khartoum.
Attacks on towns, government establishments and civilians in Darfur resulted in the deaths of hundreds of policemen and civilians and the breakdown of law and order in Darfur. An area where inhabitants depend on natural resources the severe impact of the continuing climatic changes and droughts on accessibility to land and water has a detrimental effect on the livelihood in Darfur as well as the rest of Sudan.
The Indian diaspora has been the most effective window to promote India and its rich heritage to the world. Whether India will know how to transform the skilled component of the Indian diaspora's geographically-spread skills into a “Great Off-White Hope” for the new century; is a big question.

■ IntroductionRefugees are migrants who leave their countrie.docxoswald1horne84988
■ Introduction
Refugees are migrants who leave their countries of ori-
gin for asylum, or a safe place to live, because of ongo-
ing armed conflict or fear of persecution based on their
religion, race, nationality, political affiliation, or mem-
bership in a persecuted social group, or a combination
of these items, within their home countries. Refugees
are either unwilling or unable to return to their coun-
tries of origin. The types of persecution that refugees
fear include cruel and inhumane treatment, unjust pun-
ishments, and threats of torture or death.
Unlike immigrants, who leave their home countries
seeking economic, educational, or social opportunities,
refugees seek to escape persecution and harm. Like inter-
nally displaced persons (IDPs), refugees are displaced from
their home because of safety and other humanitarian
concerns. IDPs remain in their country, however, under
the protection of their own government, while refugees
leave theirs. Refugees displaced outside of their home coun-
tries usually cannot return home, in contrast to immigrants,
who typically have the ability to return home without fear
of intimidation and oppression.
Causes of Displacement
One major reason why refugees are displaced is because
they live in a war zone caused by conflicts between their
home country and other countries. Other refugees leave
their homes because they face internal conflicts such as
civil wars or terrorism, and still others leave because of
turmoil caused by armed conflicts between neighboring
states. Refugees also flee due to agricultural problems
and food scarcity caused by water shortages and deserti-
fication, as well as by natural disasters such as floods,
earthquakes, hurricanes, and tornadoes. (Desertification
is the process of productive agricultural land being
turned into desert through deforestation, industrial ag-
riculture, or drought, or a combination of such items.)
Additionally, an economic collapse within a country or
fluctuations in local or international financial markets can
cause people to leave a country for safety and jobs
elsewhere. Some people live in fragile nations governed by
unpredictable dictators or weak or illegitimate political
systems, and these refugees choose to leave because of fear
of persecution or systemic instability. Finally, dangerous
cultural conflicts involving persecution over religion, lan-
guage, education, sexual orientation, and other factors also
cause people to flee their homes and seek asylum elsewhere.
International Understanding
of Refugee Status
Whatever the causes of refugees’ flight, their status is
defined and protected by international laws endorsed by
the members of the United Nations (UN), a body of
diplomatic representatives from countries around the
world. One such law, Article 1 of the Universal Declara-
tion of Human Rights (1948), states that “all human
beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights”
and “should act towards one another in a spirit of
brotherhood.
Transference is often manifested as an erotic attraction towards a therapist, but can be seen in many other forms such as rage, hatred, mistrust, parentification, extreme dependence, or even placing the therapist in a god-like or guru status.
A learning disability is described as:-
A state of arrested or incomplete development of mind
Significant impairment of intellectual functioning
Significant impairment of adaptive/social functioning

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2. Coerced movement of a person or persons away from
their home or home region
The International Organization for Migration defines forced
migration as any person who migrates to "escape persecution,
conflict, repression, natural and human-made disasters,
ecological degradation, or other situations that endanger
their lives, freedom or livelihood.”
3. There are many causes of displacement
Some of the more common include:
Conflict-Induced Displacement -occurs when people
are forced to flee their homes as a result of armed
conflict including civil war, generalized violence, and
persecution on the grounds of nationality, race,
religion, political opinion or social group.
4. Example
2015 Rohingya refugee crisis
According to some statistics more than 140,000 of the estimated
800,000 to 1,100,000 Rohingya have been forced to seek refuge in
displacement camps after the 2012 rohinkye state riot by Buddhists
6. Disaster-Induced Displacement -occurs when
people are displaced as a result of natural disasters
(floods, volcanoes, landslides, earthquakes),
environmental change (deforestation, desertification,
land degradation, global warming) and human-made
disasters (industrial accidents, radioactivity).
7.
8. Development-Induced Displacement -occurs when
people are compelled to move as a result of policies
and projects implemented to advance ‘development’
efforts. Examples of this include large-scale
infrastructure projects such as dams, roads, ports,
airports; urban clearance initiatives; mining and
deforestation; and the introduction of conservation
parks/reserves and biosphere projects.
9. Examples
Three Gorges Dam in China - about 1.13 million displaced
(recently increased to 4 million, but many could return).
Tokuyama Dam in Japan - some 600 displaced.
Donji Milanovac for Đerdap hydroelectric power plant
Sardar Sarovar Dam in India - between 1 and 2 million
displaced
10.

12. Some more terms
Refugees
‘well-founded fear of persecution on account of race, religion, nationality,
membership in a political social group, or political opinion’
Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs)
(who have not crossed an internationally recognized State border)
armed conflict, situations of generalized violence, violations of human
rights or natural or human-made disasters
13. Smuggled people
moved illegally for profit,
include those who have been forcibly displaced as well as those who have left
their homeland in search of better economic and social opportunities
Trafficked people
moved by deception or coercion for the purposes of exploitation,
sale of their sexual services or labor
14. According to the UNHCR report on 2007 Global Trends:
The total number of refugees and asylum (അഭയസ്ഥാനം) seekers throughout the
world: 16.0 million
• Iraq was the source of the largest number of new refugees in 2007:
561,000.
• More people from Afghanistan are “warehoused” as refugees than from
any other country: 2,790,900.

16. The late Portuguese Nobelwinning novelist José Saramago is a case in
point
With Africa in mind, he maintains that, “Displacement from south to north
is inevitable. Neither barbed – wire fences, walls, nor deportations will be
worth anything; they will come by the millions. Europe will be taken over
by the hungry. They come looking for those who robbed them
17. Pros and cons
When immigrants move to a new country, they are faced with
many unknowns, including finding employment and housing,
as well as adjusting to new laws, cultural norms, and possibly
a new language. It can be a challenge for a host country
to assimilate immigrants into society and provide the
necessary support.
Immigration does cause an increase in the labor force.
18. Some believe that immigration brings many advantages to a country both for
the economy and society as a whole
Others believe that high immigration numbers threaten national identity and
threaten national security
Another argument is that high immigration rates cheapens labor
large amounts of immigration will weaken the home country by decreasing
the population, the level of production, and economic spending
If they receive an education and create a solid life, their individual success can
also be beneficial to the home country, if they use their acquired skills to make
a difference
19. Consequences
• Overpopulation
• Lack of resources to support incoming refugees
• Higher fertility rate, as refugees settle down.
• Low literacy rates continue to Increase, not enough room in
school.
• Government not able to support added migrants in their
country.
20. Intergovernmental Organizations
The United Nations is the largest IGO; some UN agencies relevant to forced migration
are:
• UNHCR - United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees
• UNOCHA - United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs
• UNHCHR - United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights
• Unicef - United Nations Children's Fund
• UNFPA - United Nations Population Fund
• WHO - World Health Organization
