What are the main risks to refugees living in camps?
Model answer
Overcrowding spreads disease and fire, and water and sanitation are often inadequate. Long stays without work or schooling waste years of a person's life.

What is protracted displacement?

Protracted displacement is a refugee situation lasting five years or more with no solution in sight. Most of the world's refugees now live in such situations.

Jordan opened the Zaatari camp in July 2012; it housed over 100,000 people at its peak in 2013 and around 80,000 in later years. The Jordan Compact of 2016 traded work permits for refugees against trade access and finance.
