This week marks nine years since the start of the conflict in Syria, a stretch of time that weighs heavily on the lives of millions of ordinary Syrians.

As the Syrian crisis enters its tenth year, the Syrian people continue to experience acute tragedy. Every second Syrian man, woman and child has been forcibly displaced since the start of the conflict in March 2011 – often, more than once. https://t.co/WrCwDyHdn6

More than 700,000 people have fled attacks in Burkina Faso, but humanitarian aid can’t keep up with the needs. Average citizens are doing what they can, offering shelter, food and water. “I help others because if I ever wind up in the same situation, that is what I pray for.” https://t.co/MQbbSSsVk9

With the help of UNHCR, and after 7 years of difficulty, Hanan eventually secured her children's rights to citizenship in South-Sudan. Prior to this, being stateless was impacting her children's access to education and job opportunities. https://t.co/ndZO8XR2N1
