Millions of children are on the move.
Some, like the more than 2.5 million children who’ve fled Ukraine, escaped their homes with no more than the clothes on their backs. On their journeys, they can be separated from their families, face a heightened risk of human trafficking and exploitation and miss out on an education — challenges which leave lasting physical and psychological effects.
It doesn’t have to be this way. UNICEF works around the world to address the refugee crisis and protect every child on the move. From Ukraine and its bordering countries to Yemen and Afghanistan, teams are delivering vital care and providing child-friendly spaces so children can play and reunite with their families. |
The refugee crisis is upending children’s lives — but we can make a difference. In addition to actively reaching children on the move, UNICEF is acting to address the causes of this issue. Through initiatives and global advocacy, UNICEF is increasing access to education, strengthening child protection and social safety nets, and facilitating peaceful conflict resolution.
