2nd video EN_Harsh Winter Conditions in Syria’s Displacement Camps

Although some displaced families have returned to their areas of origin, a significant proportion remains unable to do so due to destroyed housing, lack of basic services, and ongoing safety and livelihood constraints. While initial emergency responses saw strong engagement from humanitarian actors, assistance has steadily declined over the past 14 years. As a result, displaced populations now face critical gaps in shelter, access to food and healthcare, basic services, protection, and livelihood opportunities.
