At the start of the Syrian Civil War in 2011, NGOs played a big part in giving refugees access to aid and distributing that aid so that people could go to school, get a job, or get medical care. Within the last few years, when tensions rose between Syrian refugees and the Turkish community, many non-governmental organizations switched their attention to fostering community among refugees in Turkey. Over the past two decades, family displacement has become a big problem in various countries due to a rise in the frequency with which natural catastrophes, military conflicts, and terrorist strikes occur. It poses severe difficulties for governing bodies and the organizations that oversee them. This research aims to identify and track refugees in surveillance zones by utilizing artificial intelligence. Refugees are vulnerable to acts of nature and human aggression, which makes their random relocation or encampments challenging to manage. To overcome these challenges, a convolutional neural network deep learning model has been proposed to identify and track refugees in surveillance zones. The proposed solution is integrated with Internet of Things (IoT) technology by equipping the system with IoT sensors to capture real-time data on the location and movements of refugees. This combination of AI and IoT has the potential to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of refugee management efforts. The suggested solution uses a convolutional neural network deep learning model, which can quickly identify a refugee’s face. To assist the government in locating a specific refugee, the system simultaneously connects with the refugees and requests that they regularly update their location. The system alerts security to identify the missing immigrant since the refugee does not update their whereabouts. Without human intervention, the deep learning algorithm makes it simple to recognize immigrants and keep an eye on them.
