Despite rising levels of migration restriction worldwide, a new poll finds that people worldwide have high levels of support for refugee protection.

The poll surveyed over 20,000 adults in 29 countries and found that two-thirds of those who participated in the poll "agreed that ​people in danger should have the option to seek refuge in another country."

More information on the poll, conducted in partnership with UNHCR, is available here.
