10 March 2016 – Years of bloody warfare have ripped Syria apart and driven 4.7 million men, women and children into exile, although their cherished memories of peace endure. Kids recall a life of safety and play, farmers a land where they grew wheat and cotton, and teachers their classes at university.
This video shares the stories of average Syrians, forced to flee their homes, families and daily lives because of war.
After five years of conflict and death, refugees need peace.
