Syrias Lost Generation
2014

Since civil war broke out in Syria in March 2011, unyielding violence has left more than 6 million internally displaced, while another 5.6 million have fled abroad. More than half of them are children. Talking Eyes Media and photojournalist Ed Kashi have collaborated with the International Medical Corps to illustrate the chaotic effects of the war on Syria’s refugee youth population.
