More than 100 million people have been forcibly displaced from their home around the world \\u2013 fleeing conflict, natural disasters or persecution. Millions end up in refugee camps, living in tents.

Around the world, designers and architects are trying to improve the lives of these displaced people, by improving the temporary homes they\\u2019re living in.

From prefabricated shelters made using Swedish flat-pack design methods, to the homes made from scratch using local knowledge and materials, we meet the people trying to replace tents with homes that have a little more dignity.
