“Drawing is my source of power”

UNICEF, together with the Turkish Red Crescent, is providing cash transfers to the families of over 680,000 refugee children in Turkey who regularly attend school under the ‘Conditional Cash Transfer for Education programme’ thanks to financial support from EU humanitarian aid.

 

“This programme really helped a lot,” says Zahraa’s father, Zuhair. “I will never force my daughter to stop going to school, even if I need to sell the house furniture. Having such financial support for families that do not have regular sources of income is really a positive reinforcement for us to keep our children in education.”
