2014: A devastating year for children | UNICEF
The year 2014
has been one of horror, fear and despair for millions of children, as
worsening conflicts across the world saw them exposed to extreme
violence and its consequences, forcibly recruited and deliberately
targeted by warring groups. Yet many crises no longer capture the
world’s attention.
As many as 15 million children are caught up
in violent conflicts in the Central African Republic, Iraq, South Sudan,
the State of Palestine, Syria and
Ukraine – including those internally displaced or living as refugees.
Globally, an estimated 230 million children currently live in countries
and areas affected by armed conflicts.
The official UNICEF YouTube channel is your primary destination for the
latest news updates from the frontline, documentaries, celebrity
appeals, and more about our work to realize the rights of every child.
