Children
Children

 Almost half of refugees in Thailand’s camps are children. Many spend their entire childhood without knowing the outside world. Most of them have witnessed or experienced violent acts and have often been separated from their families.
Without the support from adults their psychological and social wellbeing are under threat. In the chaos of conflict and displacement, refugee children can find themselves lost, alone and vulnerable. We urgently need your help to provide the vital humanitarian support and assistance they need. Here are some examples of UNHCR's projects;

  • Birth Registration : UNHCR supports Thai government to register ALL children who were born in camps to prevent statelessness and ensure access to other basic rights.

  • Protect children without parents : UNHCR supports the monitoring the well-being of children without parents in camps by supporting social workers, psychologists and staff to take care of them closely and regularly includes child protection program in various activities.

Wars and conflicts have shattered the lives of millions of families. Many refugee women in Thailand have lost their loved ones, leaving them traumatized and at risk.
There are over 44,000 refugee women in Thailand and desperately need immediate assistance and protection to help them get back on their feet and to take care of their family, often as the only remaining parent.
Women displaced by war and conflict require support today, tomorrow and for the foreseeable future. That is why your regular support through a monthly donation is so vital, ensuring that vulnerable people such as women in refugee camps in Thailand, receive help for as long as they need it. Here are examples of our projects.
