Ethiopia is the second largest refugee hosting country in Africa, home to over 1M refugees and asylum seekers—mainly from South Sudan, Somalia and Eritrea. Following the outbreak of armed conflict in Sudan (April 2023), Ethiopia is receiving thousands of forcibly displaced people at several points of entry. UNHCR and the Government of Ethiopia, through the Refugees and Returnees Service (RRS), in partnership with regional authorities, other UN agencies and NGOs, are working to provide safe asylum access, documentation, protection and solutions to those who need humanitarian support.
