*Palestinian individuals have a long history of migration. For instance, silk workers from Tiberias are mentioned in 13th-century Parisian tax records. However, the '''first large emigration wave of Arab Christians out of Palestine''' began in the mid-19th century; factors driving the emigration included economic opportunities, avoiding forced military service, and localized conflicts such as the 1860 civil conflict in Mount Lebanon and Damascus.

*Since the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, Palestinians have experienced several waves of exile and have spread into different host countries around the world. In addition to the more than 700,000 Palestinian refugees of 1948, hundreds of thousands were also displaced in the 1967 Six-Day War.

*After 1967, a number of young Palestinian men were encouraged to migrate to South America.
*Besides those displaced by war, others have emigrated overseas for various reasons such as work opportunity, education, and religious persecution. In the decade following the 1967 war, for example, an average of 21,000 Palestinians per year were forced out of Israeli-controlled areas. The pattern of Palestinian flight continued during the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s.

*The issue of the '''Palestinian right of return''' has been of central importance to Palestinians and more broadly the Arab world since 1948. It is the dream of many in the Palestinian diaspora, and is present most strongly in '''Palestinian refugee camps'''. In the largest such camp in '''Lebanon''', Ain al-Hilweh, '''neighborhoods are named for the Galilee towns and villages''' from which the original refugees came, such as '''Az-Zeeb, Safsaf and Hittin'''. Even though 97% of the camp's inhabitants have never seen the towns and villages their parents and grandparents left behind, most insist that the right of return is an inalienable right and one that they will never renounce.
