In celebration of World Refugee Day, Esri has revealed a Story Map, “The Uprooted,” which provides insight into the Syrian displacement. Syria accounts for a large portion of the world’s refugees and internally displaced people.

World Refugee Day is held every year on June 20 to commemorate the strength, courage and perseverance of millions of refugees.
