Imagine not being allowed to bring your spouse and children to safety with you. That's the reality for many refugees since family reunion was suspended last September. Families help each other learn, work and rebuild. Without a safe route to reunite, some are left with no option but smugglers.

In two months of war in Iran, the US has spent an estimated $25 billion. The same amount could: ➡️ Treat every malnourished child on earth 6 x over. ➡️ Provide remote pre-school education to children in Sudan, Gaza & South Sudan, 11x over. ➡️ Vaccinate all zero-dose children worldwide, 16x over.
A graphic titled "Cost to reach children with critical aid", featuring a short bar chart showing the costs of three interventions for children in need: $1.57b to vaccinate every zero-dose child worldwide; $2.2b to provide remote pre-school education in Sudan, Gaza and South Sudan; $3.9b to treat the world's malnourished children. Below this is the start of a bar showing the cost of 2 months of war in Iran ($25b), which goes on past the end of the page.The bar from the previous slide continues with different amounts marked along the way, and the words "still going" at the end. The bar from the previous slides continues, ending at $25 billion.
