"Over the past few years, escalating conflicts in Syria, Afghanistan, and the South Sudan, as well as other countries, led to an influx of refugees seeking asylum abroad. According to the UN refugee agency, by the end of 2016, there were 22.5 million refugees around the world. 20 people were forced to flee their homes every minute. And 51% of those refugees were children." —Source: EdTech Times
