It examines the critical facets to their well-being: access to proper care and food, school, and safety and protection, while also calling for better data to drive disability-inclusive policies and programming for children on the move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\"><strong>Millions of children overlooked<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">There are nearly 240 million children with disabilities worldwide.<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\">[1]<\/a> And at the end of 2021, there were an estimated 36.5 million children displaced across borders or within their own countries due to conflict, violence or other crises.<a id=\"_ftnref2\" href=\"#_ftn2\">[2]<\/a> These are highly diverse populations living in a wide variety of circumstances. Yet, they share the experience of being among the most marginalized children around the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">Data on the number of children with disabilities who have migrated or been displaced are limited. But this is likely a sizeable population. The research and evidence that are available leave little doubt that their rights are too often overlooked, ignored, neglected and violated. This has led to serious risks and deprivations in the lives of these children. For instance, when children with disabilities are on the move, obstacles to accessing proper care or quality, inclusive learning opportunities are common. Intense food insecurity, lack of clean water, and exposure to violence may be a part of daily life. Stigma, discrimination and isolation may be felt acutely. Notably, crises such as conflict and disasters and the migration journey itself can aggravate a child\u2019s existing impairments or lead to new ones, as seen in Snezhana\u2019s story.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-blue-background-color has-text-color has-background has-large-font-size\"><em>Regardless of education level, children with disabilities are more likely to be out of school than children without disabilities<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/data.unicef.org\/data-for-action\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=3410&amp;action=edit#_ftn3\">[3]<\/a> <em>Of the 10 million school-age refugee children worldwide, nearly half are not in school<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/data.unicef.org\/data-for-action\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=3410&amp;action=edit#_ftn4\">[4]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile is-vertically-aligned-center has-small-font-size\" style=\"grid-template-columns:35% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/data.unicef.org\/data-for-action\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/03\/UN0616165-1-1-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3417 size-medium\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-blue-background-color has-text-color has-background has-large-font-size\"><em>Children with disabilities and children on the move experience high levels of discrimination<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/data.unicef.org\/data-for-action\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=3410&amp;action=edit#_ftn5\">[5]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">In March 2021, Snezhana was diagnosed with viral encephalitis. For six months, the 12-year-old was unable to move or speak. As she learned to navigate her new life in a wheelchair and her cognitive abilities began to return, crisis hit her native Ukraine. Snezhana and her mother fled to Romania. Displacement has meant an interruption to the medical assistance she needs to recover and thrown the adolescent\u2019s future into question. Snezhana loves art, cherishing the drawings she made before the war began as reminders of a time when she enjoyed childhood and health.<em>\u00a9 UNICEF\/UN0616165\/Catu<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\"><strong>Investing in every child<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">The findings of this new UNICEF report make clear that action must be urgently taken to uphold the rights of children with disabilities who are on the move. This begins with investing in the production of quality data that can be broken down by relevant characteristics \u2013 such as age and migratory- and disability status \u2013 to ensure these children are identified and counted and that their experiences are understood by decision makers. Without these data, policies and programming will continue to leave these children behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">Like every child, children with disabilities who are on the move have a right to full participation in their communities. They must receive the proper care and nourishment every child needs to survive and thrive. They must be welcomed to every school and given the chance to learn and succeed. They must be granted the same right to live free from stigma and discrimination as their peers without disabilities. As Tasneem, a Syrian refugee, reminds us, ensuring that every child is included is to the benefit of all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile is-vertically-aligned-center is-image-fill\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">Tasneem (front, right) will never forget the day that the new playground was unveiled at her school in the Za\u2019atari Refugee Camp in Jordan. Not only were there new games and a new trampoline for the 10-year-old to try out, but the playground was now disability-inclusive. That meant that for the first time, all of Tasneem\u2019s friends, including Asma (front, left), 8, who uses a wheelchair, could join in the fun. \u201cWe were thrilled,\u201d Tasneem says. \u201cIt\u2019s important that we can play together.
