Wars now make part of millions of children’s daily lives. Nearly 230 million children live in war conflicted areas, every tenth child globally.

The most recent case is the crisis in Syria, due to which 2 million children live in refugee camps. The neighbouring countries have to cope with the regional consequences. Globally 30 million children had to leave their homes due to armed conflicts.

Save children from becoming refugees!

How does UNICEF help?

UNICEF has been on the ground in Syria and in its neighboring countries for 5 years (Jordan, Turkey, Iraq, Libia and Egypt), where we provide education, physical protection, psychological support, clothing, we immunize children against disease and provide millions of people with drinking water.

In 2014, in Syria and in the neigbouring countries UNICEF has achieved the followings:

• approximately 1.3 million refugees gained acces to adequate sanitation systems and safe drinking water in refugee camps
• to prevent measles 1.2 million children were vaccinated. 22.3 million children under the age of five were vaccinated against polyiomietilis
• 376.000 children went to school
• 163.000 children were provided with winter clothing
• 663.000 children received psychological help in children-friendly centers.

Did you know that only 5,000 HUF buys:

• the complete immunisation for 10 children,
• the daily meal of 70 severely malnutritioned children,
• 500 water purification tablets,
• school books for 5 children?
