More than 70 million people have been displaced up till now and people keep on seeking refuge in other countries for several purposes and managing huge refugee influx properly is becoming more and more hard day by day. Providing millions of people with shelter is a huge challenge, that too for a very long time of almost two decades or more, especially when there isn’t much political will in it. The refugee crisis doesn't seem to be slowing down; wars in many counties in the world like Syria, Yemen, and South Sudan continue to force thousands of people to flee from their homes on a daily basis. Almost 23million individuals have crossed borders in search of safety and protection, with more than half of them being children. Families are being shattered, and many women, men, and children have died. Thousands of people are fleeing from Afghanistan after the Taliban reclaimed control of the nation nearly two decades after being expelled by a US-led coalition. Pakistan has been sheltering millions of Afghan refugees for more than three decades. Pakistan is now handling one of the world's largest protracted refugee caseloads under unstable conditions that unintentionally Increase their vulnerability. Today, the duration of stay in a camp is 18 years. That equals to a generation. These areas must be acknowledged for what they are: "cities of the future," rather than the artificial temporary places we like to imagine. Many refugees may never be able to return home, this must be recognized and integrated into solutions. Treating their condition as momentary or reversible throws people in an existential crisis; residents of these refugee camps can neither return to their normal life nor go forward with their current lives. Designers must design refugee settlements that are both long-lasting and self-sufficient.
