| 説明 | Since leaving Syria in 2011, Chouk has been living with her parents and 5 brothers and sisters in a makeshift, tented shelter in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley.After 3 years in Lebanon, Chouk started attending Terbol Elementary School - a school supported by UK aid and UNICEF to help accommodate Syrian refugee students.“Everybody loves Chouk”, says her father Hadi. "She used to stay out all day to play. Now she goes to school"."School is definitely important, for children and adults", says Chouk. "We learn from each other. We joke, we play, we laugh. When we grow up and we meet up together we will remember being children together at school".BackgroundToday, around 500,000 Syrian refugee children live in Lebanon - forced to flee the crisis in their homeland, and to leave their school behind.But in the last year alone, more than 200,000 were brought back into school – thanks to a Lebanese government enrolment programme, backed by UK aid and UNICEF.There is more to be done: we must ensure all refugee children get an education to avoid a lost generation of Syrian children.Getting every Syrian refugee and host community child back into education by the end of the 2016-17 school year is a key aim of the Supporting Syria and the Region conference on 4 February. The conference is being co-hosted in London by the UK, Germany, Kuwait, Norway, and the United Nations.For more information please visit www.supportingsyria2016.comPicture: Adam Patterson/Panos/DFID------------------------------------------------------Free-to-use photoThis image is posted under a Creative Commons - Attribution Licence, in accordance with the Open Government Licence.
