Journeys of Resilience of Refugees from Ukraine is an interactive map tracking the movements of refugees from Ukraine amidst the ongoing war. Created for the UN’s International Organization for Migration (IOM), the map captures both the immense scale of forced migration and the stories of return and resilience that continue to unfold.
Since Russia’s invasion, around 11 million Ukrainians have been forced to leave their homes. Of these, 6.9 million have moved abroad - mostly to other European countries - while 3.7 million remain internally displaced within Ukraine. IOM has visualized the destinations of these refugees using an animated flow map, which reveals the numbers of Ukrainians moving to each individual European country.
Many refugees have actually returned to Ukraine. Around 14% of the country’s entire population is now made up of returnees. A choropleth map in Journeys of Resilience shows the percentage of returnees in each oblast. As you might expect, the percentage of returnees tends to be higher in the western oblasts, farther from the front line of the ongoing war.
