"Risking
their lives in over-crowded boats, frightened and vulnerable, a total
of over 325,000 children have now crossed the Mediterranean and
Aegean, fleeing war, poverty and persecution in search of a
better, safer life. An estimated 340 children have drowned since
September - that’s an average of two children a day".
“This is
a generation of children who have lost everything- their home, their
education, their family and in some cases their lives".
