LIFE OF A REFUGEE
Imagine you are lost at sea waves crashing fiercely on the sides of your escape boat, what are you going to do where are you going as thoughts flood you're mind, a huge wave engulfs you with coldness. You're friends and family are tossed overboard 1000's of miles to go. Everywhere you look water, water, water, thousands of, miles of water. This is the life of an average refugee. Since they are escaping, they have to run from peril and danger everywhere they go.

On the right the pie chart also shows that about 50% of refugees are children. On the left the pie chart says that people think about 75% of refugees are "Military-age" men.
