Situation Report: October-November 2021

Throughout the months of October and November 2021, World Vision has been advocating at national, regional and global levels to governments, institutional donors and UN agencies to address the increasing gap in protection and education funding for those affected by the Syria crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic. Across the Syria Response countries, our field staff have observed a silent pandemic unfolding affecting women and girls disproportionately - a surge in mental health needs and little specialised capacity on the ground to respond. The ongoing review of the Refugee Resilience Regional Plan - Humanitarian Needs Overview (3RP) and the Universal Periodic Review of the Syria Arab Republic have been the most important processes for advocating for Syria’s children and their deepening vulnerabilities, including the durable solutions that need to be accelerated for those seeking refuge from persecution and violence.
