Diese Studie liefert einschlägige Informationen aus erster Hand über die Lebenswirklichkeit von syrischen Kindern, die arbeiten müssen: in ihrem Heimatland, in den Nachbarstaaten oder in Europa. Der syrische Bürgerkrieg ist die schlimmste humanitäre Katastrophe unserer Zeit. Hunderttausende Men...schen – Erwachsene und Kinder – wurden getötet. Zwei Drittel aller Syrer haben ihr Zuhause und ihre Existenzgrundlage verloren. Millionen Syrer wurden aus ihrem Lebensumfeld gerissen und gezwungen, innerhalb ihres Landes oder in die Nachbarländer zu fliehen. Die enormen Auswirkungen auf andere Länder ziehen internationale Aufmerksamkeit auf sich. Diese richtet sich nicht nur auf die humanitäre Krise in den betroffenen Gebieten und Ländern, sondern auch auf deren wirtschaftliche und soziale Last. Das durch die verschiedenen Konfliktparteien verursachte Blutvergießen hält an, das Leid wird größer. Rund die Hälfte aller syrischen Flüchtlinge und Vertriebenen sind Kinder und Jugendliche: Diese sind doppelt verletzlich – als Kinder und als Flüchtlinge oder Vertriebene.

Most refugee children have experienced trauma which may affect their emotional, behavioral, and ph...ysical development. However, many refugee children are resilient
and may not exhibit symptoms related to trauma.

El matrimonio infantil viola los derechos humanos independientemente de si la persona involucrada es un niño o una niña, pero sin duda se trata de la forma más generalizada de abuso sexual y explotación de las niñas. Algunas consecuencias negativas son la separación de la
familia y los amigos..., la falta de libertad para relacionarse con las personas de la misma edad y participar en las actividades comunitarias, y una reducción de las oportunidades de recibir una educación. El matrimonio infantil también puede acarrear trabajos forzados, esclavitud,
prostitución y violencia contra las víctimas. Puesto que no pueden evitar las relaciones sexuales ni insistir en el uso del preservativo, las novias menores de edad se exponen a graves riesgos para su salud, como los embarazos prematuros, las infecciones transmitidas sexualmente y, cada vez más, al VIH/SIDA. Los progenitores a veces consienten estos matrimonios por necesidades económicas. En estos casos, el matrimonio se considera como un medio de proporcionar a sus hijas una tutela masculina, de protegerlas contra las agresiones sexuales, de evitar embarazos sin estar casadas, de alargar sus años de fecundidad o de asegurar su obediencia en el hogar del marido.
