Located in the Middle East and also known as the Syrian Arab Republic, bordering Lebanon, the Mediterranean Sea, Jordan, Israel, Iraq and Turkey. Its capital, Damascus is one of the oldest continuously inhabited citys. Over the last 4 and a half years, more than 200,000 Syrians have lost their lives in the conflict taking place in the country between forces loyal to the president and the forces of opposition.

Already considered the greatest humanitarian crisis of our time, the wave of Syrian refugees continues to grow. It is the largest exodus in recent history, more than 4.5 million Syrians have already left their country. For behind, leave their homes and their belongings, they just bring the clothes they wear and little else. This exodus has increased significantly since 2003 when the living conditions deteriorated drastically. It is believed that half the population has been forced to leave their houses and the worst is that many of these people do not have access to aid.

Thousands of womens, mens and childrens, have now an uncertain fate, without prospects of future to a better life. The neighboring countries such as Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey struggles to accommodate the wave of refugees who every day come to their borders.

Europe is now also preparing to start receiving the first refugees.
