The recent events underscore the importance of a Comprehensive Convention on International Terrorism to degrade and permanently destroy ISIS and its vitriolic ideology that is inflicting pain on innocent people. The humanitarian crises triggered by sectarian and ideological violence has plagued our world at a disheartening rate. comparable to or surpassing the numbers from World War II according to some estimates. According to one United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCRs) annual Global Trends report. which is based on data compiled by governments and nongovernmental partner organizations. and from the organizations own records. over 60 million people have been forcibly displaced across the globe. Moreover. according to a report by the International Displacement Monitor Center. an estimated 3.300.000 persons have been displaced and 5.500 killed as a result of the violence wreaked by Boko Haram. One United Nations Childrens Fund (UNICEF) report asserts that as the most populous nation in Africa with 174.000.000 persons. 1.500.000 people have fled their homes to escape Boko Haram.
