Thousands of people displaced by war in Syria have lost vital documents including marriage and birth certificates. The consequences can be life-changing for them and their children, many of whom risk becoming stateless. In Tartous, legal representation, counseling and awareness sessions conducted by UNHCR partner organizations are helping the displaced get the vital documents they need to resume their lives.
