The Syria crisis marks its 5th anniversary this March. After 5 years, we still see no end of the raging conflict and bloodshed. According to UN, Syria produces the largest number of refugees in the world. To seek refuge, over 4.7 million people have taken long journeys to foreign countries; and about 6.6 million have been displaced in Syria. A total of 13.5 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance.
Syrian children and families find little support and aid to lead a better life, without access to social welfare, healthcare, housing and basic necessities. At least 8.2 million children inside Syria and across the region are now experiencing displacement, interrupted schooling, food insecurity and limited protection from serious harm and abuse. As the conflict continues, Syrian children only see a gloomy future.
Our Work
Since 2011, World Vision has assisted approximately 2.37 million people in Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey and Iraq; and has also been providing relief aid along the Serbian border since last year. Our relief work includes:
-
WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene): Construction and maintenance of water facilities and latrines in host communities, refugee camps and schools. Hygiene promotion in communities. Provision of hygiene kits and other sanitation items to affected children and families.
-
Education & child protection: Provide learning opportunities like non-formal education and remedial classes for children to catch up on schooling. Set up Child Friendly Spaces and provide psychosocial support for children affected by the conflict.
-
Health: In Syria, World Vision helps expand healthcare services coverage, provide medical equipment, and support capacity-building of health workers with the emphasis to benefit women and children.
-
Household and personal items: Distribution of household items, winter coats and fuel for winter needs.
-
Food and cash assistance: World Vision provides food and cash assistance to vulnerable families to meet their daily needs.
-
Serbia’s work: World Vision has provided hygiene kits, baby kits, food and water for the refugee families and children, and also conducted child protection activities.
Please help the millions of Syrian children who have already suffered so much!
