New Zealand has one of the lowest numbers of refugees per capita in the world — all is now set to accept more refugees.
As a result of COVID-19, New Zealand was forced to shut its borders, which left many refugees that are supposed to be accommodated in precarious circumstances with shattered hopes. Each minute of every day, people are been separated from their friends, family and communities because of who they are or what they believe. To accommodate such people, New Zealand has agreed to reopen their borders. COVID restrictions aside, New Zealand accepts 1,500 refugees per year and there's the possibility of increasing the figure.
