Do you know how many refugees there are worldwide? How many asylum seekers in Greece? Which five conflict zones make up 70% of all refugees? Think there are 500 million African refugees "storming the beaches of Europe? Depending on who you listen to, or where you get your news you may be wildly misinformed of the true reality.

On this World Refugee Day (Month), join us for our latest episode of DisInfo Watch to unpack the latest UNHCR Report on what is really unfolding globally and locally, and see if you fare any better than our students as they try to see how much they know about the situation of refugees worldwide. Join us for this episode and test your own knowledge.
