Syria: A Children’s Crisis? Learn about the crisis and think critically about who is affected
Overview
The conflict in Syria has internally displaced 4.25 million Syrians and 1.9 million refugees have fled to neighbouring countries, including Jordan and Lebanon. This is the fastest growing refugee crisis in the world; a crisis that currently threatens to outstrip its humanitarian response.
This resource for 11-16 year olds outlines the impact of the crisis on refugee children in Lebanon and Jordan, and suggests how young people in the UK can effectively respond.
Owing to the publication date of this resource, some of the content (including statistics and links) may need updating. Find out about other ways in which you can take action through Oxfam’s Schools Speak Out Programme.
