This is reported by Deutsche Welle.

Thus, out of 100 thousand children in shelters are 120.

Nevertheless, in Central and Eastern Europe this figure is five times higher than the average. In turn, out of 100 thousand children in boarding schools and children's homes live 666 people.



According to Cornelius Williams, Director of Child Protection of UNICEF, in shelters, children who are already vulnerable due to separation from their families face an increased risk of violence. Also, such rape will affect their cognitive, social and emotional development, stressed Williams.

Since, in many countries there is no exact information about how many children live in private institutions, then the organization has asked the governments to provide such information.

Recall, as previously reported, "URA-Inform, the number of children who have become refugees since 2010 increased fivefold.
