New research shows devastating economic impact of Covid-19 on displaced

Photo: Mahmoud Al-Filstini/NRC Details: Walid Mansour Ali Abdu, aged 12, had to flee his home because of the conflict. He lives now in Al-Meshqafa camp in Lahj governorate. Before Covid-19, Walid was going to a school built by NRC in the camp, to give displaced children access to an education. “I just joined school last year and I’m in the first primary class. We fled Taiz two years ago when fighting broke out in our neighbourhood. We came to Al-Meshqafa then.” “We are scared of coronavirus, but we want schools to reopen. If the coronavirus continues, our life will be worse. We won’t go to school or play with friends and we can’t do anything,” says Walid.
