Syria In Focus

2 March 2017

Six years of conflict has had a devastating impact on the lives of all civilians in Syria, with humanitarian needs reaching an alarming level.

According to the 2017 Humanitarian Needs Overview (HNO), 13.5 million persons are in need of protection and humanitarian assistance, including 6.3 million internally displaced people (IDPs), 4.3 million in need of shelter interventions, 5.8 million in need of Non-Foor Item (NFI) assistance with 13.8M Syrians requiring early recovery and livelihood support.

In this backdrop, UNHCR provides life-saving assistance to both IDPs and Refugees across the country. The monthly ‘Syria in Focus’ gives an update on UNHCR Syria activities, current interventions, partner activities and the stories of beneficiaries themselves.
