Understanding Refugees by GDP (PPP) Per Capita:
Gross National Product (GDP) measures the value of goods and services produced in a country in a given year, otherwise known as the national wealth. GDP Per capita is the ratio between national wealth and the country’s population, it is believed that the higher the GDP Per Capita the greater the standard of living. Purchasing Power Party (PPP) converts the GDP of a country into an international dollar and used for comparisons between countries.
For these charts, we can see the ratio between hosting 1 refugee and $1 of national wealth. Where the ratio is high there is an expected higher relative contribution and effort to host refugees.
Understanding Refugees per 1000 Inhabitants
This figure shows how many refugees there for every 1000 people already living in that country.
Asylum seekers are people who have a pending case for asylum or protection as at the end of the 31 of December 2013. All people who have a case pending at this date are counted as asylum seekers even if they first made their application in an earlier year.

The people of concern are made up of; refugees, asylum seekers, internally displaced people, stateless people, returned refugees, returned internally displaced people and a group of people who fall outside of these categories but are considered in need on humanitarian grounds.
