Racism and xenophobia in the context of forced displacement and statelessness

There are several dimensions to racism and xenophobia in the context of forced displacement and statelessness. Racism and racial discrimination can affect refugees at every stage of the displacement cycle, including as a cause of displacement from their countries of origin, in transit countries, in host countries as well as in cases where refugees seek voluntary repatriation and reintegration in their home countries or third countries. Some groups of refugees may face barriers to local integration (including naturalization) because they are perceived as “foreign” or “other.”
