Education, a basic right, is slipping away from an entire generation of Syrian children. With over 2.4 million children out of school across the country, the situation in northern Syria is particularly dire, where 1 million children are missing out on their education.

The 2023 devastating earthquake only deepened this crisis, forcing an additional 200,000 children to drop out of school.

In nearly 60% of displacement camps, there are no schools or learning centers, and even where schools do exist, ongoing teacher strikes and continued conflict make regular learning impossible.

Each day that passes without education is another step away from hope and a brighter future for these children.

In response to this urgent need, we are working relentlessly to restore education and provide children with the chance to learn.

What We Did in 2023

  • We are rehabilitating schools damaged by the earthquake and ensuring they are safe, equipped, and ready for students.
  • We are supporting schools with operational expenses, providing essential supplies like furniture, heaters, and fuel for the cold months.
  • To ensure children can return to their studies, we are distributing textbooks, school bags, hygiene kits, and other necessary materials.
  • Additionally, we are investing in the future by supporting teachers with salaries, educational resources, and capacity-building training to improve their skills.
  • For students living in remote areas or those with special needs, we provide transportation to ensure they can access education.
  • We also focus on creating awareness about child protection and the importance of education, helping children and their families understand that learning is key to rebuilding their futures.
  • Through these efforts, we are not just bringing children back to school, we are restoring their hope, rebuilding their dreams, and empowering them with the tools to create a better future.
