What's behind the record number of displaced people? | Inside Story

More people than ever before are being forcibly displaced around the world.
And according to the UN refugee agency, either we deal with the causes - conflict, climate change and persecution, to name just a few...
Or we begin accepting a world in which millions are displaced everywhere. Right now that figure is at more 100 million.
The war in Ukraine is worsening the situation - displacing more than 12 million people in less than 4 months.
Can this rising trend be reversed? And if so, how?
