- Summary:
- Conflict takes an incommensurate toll on education, jeopardizing children's present and future. The statistics are staggering. Today, approximately 75 million crisis-affected children aged 3-18, of whom many live in conflict situations, are in urgent need of quality education. This is so, because children in conflict affected countries are 30 percent less likely to complete primary school and half as likely to complete lower-secondary school. About two thirds of all out of school children, adolescents and youth worldwide live in conflict affected countries.
