Last month, the UNHCR Special Envoy Angelina Jolie-Pitt made a return visit to Lebanon to see Hala, a feisty 11-year-old girl she met a year ago and one of 4 million Syrian refugees. Jolie-Pitt introduced her daughter Shiloh to the Syrian family.
Hala had escaped Syria in 2013 with her five brothers and sisters. Like many Syrians, their world fell apart with the arrival of the war. Their mother was killed - their father is still missing. They arrived in Lebanon with nothing. Two years on, survival continues to be a challenge. Finding enough food and paying the rent is a constant struggle.
