2021年10月7日 · Somalia hosts some 3.86 million persons of concern to UNHCR, including over 39,000 refugees and asylum-seekers, mainly from Ethiopia and Yemen. Approximately 9,000 refugees have voluntarily returned (Jan 2020 - December 2023) to Somalia with UNHCR assistance, the majority coming back from Yemen, Kenya, Djibouti, and Libya.

2016年6月1日 · Almost two-thirds of the global Somali diaspora live in neighboring countries. At nearly half a million, Kenya hosts the largest number of Somali migrants (both refugees and nonrefugees) of any other country, according to UN estimates. Not far behind is Ethiopia with 440,000 Somali migrants.

A total of 35,672 refugees and asylum seekers mainly Yemenis and Ethiopians were hosted in Somalia across the three regions of Somaliland, Puntland and South central.

Around 13.2% of the Somali national population have become refugees and asylum seekers who have sought protection elsewhere through outward migration. In fact, in 2016 it was estimated that 1.1 million Somali refugees and 0.5 million Somali asylum seekers were displaced worldwide, the majority in the Horn of Africa and Yemen.

2019年12月16日 · Refugees International urges the international community to provide funding and technical assistance to help displaced Somalis rebuild their lives. Neighboring countries, including Kenya, must also uphold the rights of Somali refugees.

Ethnic Somalis face widespread discrimination in Kenya. Despite their contribution to Kenyan society, Somali-Kenyans have been the victim of discrimination and terror by the Kenyan police as tension rises due to continued al-Shabaab attacks. In principle, all people have the right to acquire citizenship without discrimination in Kenya.
