The UN Refugee Agency is facing its worst funding crisis in history, with a shortfall of $5.789 billion due to a 24% drop in funding between 2024 and 2025, caused by reductions in contributions from some major donor countries such as the United States. As of July 2026, only 32% of the funding request of $8.505 billion has been received, while the number of displaced persons remains near record levels, with an estimated 131.2 million people under its mandate by the end of the year. The funding shortfall has led to the reduction of services provided to refugees, the suspension of many programs, and the deterioration of protection systems, with warnings that continuing this situation could lead to the collapse of protection mechanisms and deprive the most vulnerable groups of essential support, especially in regions like Sudan and Afghanistan.
