Refugee:
A refugee is an individual forced to flee their country due to a well-founded fear of persecution based on factors such as race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion. Refugees seek international protection and are unable or unwilling to return to their home country.
Migrant:
A migrant is a person who moves from one place to another, often for economic reasons, seeking better opportunities or living conditions. Migration can be voluntary, and migrants may move within their own country (internal migration) or across borders (international migration). Unlike refugees, migrants are not necessarily fleeing persecution.
Diaspora:
Diaspora refers to a scattered population with a common origin in a specific geographic area. Diaspora communities are often connected by shared cultural, ethnic, or national identity. Members of a diaspora may live in various parts of the world, maintaining connections with their homeland. Unlike refugees and migrants, diaspora communities may have left their place of origin voluntarily or due to historical events.
