Dadaab (Somali: Dhadhaab) is a semi-arid town in Garissa County, Kenya. It is the site of a UNHCR base hosting 426,822 registered refugees and asylum seekers as of 28 February 2025,[1] in four camps (Dagahaley, Hagadera and Ifo, and Ifo 2),[2] making it one of the largest in the world behind Kutupalong refugee camp.[3][4][5][6] The centre is run by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, and its operations are financed by foreign donors.[7] In 2013, UNHCR, the governments of Kenya and Somalia signed a tripartite agreement facilitating the repatriation of Somali refugees at the complex.[8]
