Lama and her family live in Wadi Khaled in northern Lebanon. After fleeing from the Syrian conflict, Lama missed one year of school. But luckily the local school has opened its doors to Syrian refugee children, and Lama and her little brother are back in school. Lama is one of the 106,000 Syrian refugee children that went back to school in Lebanon. In 2015, UNHCR supported 42,000 of these students. This has only been possible with generous donations of the European Union and other donors.
