refugee children
Minors escaping conflict
Children who have been forced to flee their home country due to war, persecution, or disaster.
The term emphasizes their particular vulnerability—they face dangers of displacement while still developing physically and emotionally, often separated from family or missing years of education.
The camp provided schooling for refugee children.
International law grants them special protections.
