[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Refugee Site Location

Dear all, There is not yet a real consensus within the OSM community regarding the way to reference refugee sites in OSM. As a result, tagging is applied inconsistently which makes it quite difficult to find and use this data. In the past years there have
