"Forced
migration - sometimes reaching the level of ethnic cleansing
- is one of the great tragedies of the modern age, as it
has been in the past. Forced Migration Review performs

victims and end the crimes they have been compelled to
endure."

analyses the multi-dimensional humanitarian situation and
effectively exposes the "human face" behind
the facts and the data."
