Three years ago, the leaders of UN humanitarian agencies issued an urgent appeal to those who could end the conflict in Syria. They called for every effort to save the Syrian people. “Enough”, they said, of the suffering and bloodshed. • That was three years ago. • Now, the war is approaching its sixth brutal year. The bloodshed continues. The suffering deepens. • So today, we — leaders of humanitarian organizations and UN agencies — appeal not only to governments but to each of you — citizens around the world — to add your voices in urging an end to the carnage. To urge that all parties reach agreement on a ceasefire and a path to peace. • More than ever before, the world needs to hear a collective public voice calling for an end to this outrage. Because this conflict and its consequences touch us all. • It touches those in Syria who have lost loved ones and livelihoods, who have been uprooted from their homes, or who live in desperation under siege. Today, some 13.5 million people inside Syria need humanitarian assistance. That is not simply a statistic. These are 13.5 million individual human beings whose lives and futures are in jeopardy. • It touches the families who, with few options for a better future, set out on perilous journeys to foreign lands in search of refuge. The war has seen 4.6 million people flee to neighboring countries and beyond. • It touches a generation of children and young people who — deprived of education and traumatized by the horrors they have experienced — increasingly see their future shaped only by violence. • It touches those far beyond Syria who have seen the violent repercussions of the crisis reach the streets, offices and restaurants closer to their homes. • And it touches all those around the world whose economic wellbeing is affected, in ways visible and invisible, by the conflict. • Learn more about the UNICEF’s efforts to aid children fleeing poverty and violence: • http://www.unicefusa.org/refugees • Please share this page on your social networks to support UNICEF in helping children in need around the world. • Make a difference in a child’s life with a tax deductible donation: • https://www.unicefusa.org/donate/help... • UNICEF would not be able to provide support to children in need without donations from people like you.
