Honduras faces multidimensional humanitarian risks in a state of extreme fragility. Recurring hurricanes and extreme weather conditions have exacerbated the damage of the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in an increase of organized crime, widespread violence, and economic instability.
As a consequence, more Hondurans have become internally displaced, or are seeking international protection abroad. The country currently registers an estimated 247,000 internally displaced people.
In recent years, Honduras has received large numbers of returnees from abroad. According to the National Migration Institute, 147,151 individuals returned to Honduras from other countries between 2022 and 2023.
