we all have to recognize turkey, lebanon, has done tremendous work in welcoming refugees.e international response has adjusted to the urban nature of the refugee situation. however, that urban nature creates some particular challenges because the impact of refugees on host communities is much stronger than when you have refugee camps, which are easier to manage. we're seeing now there's some erosion of the tolerance of local population when they see the schools overburdened, access to medical facilities dependent on very long queues, the rise in price of apartments or wherever they live going up and the price of basic food commodities going up, so there is an impact on the local population that after four years starts to generate reaction of rejection or tension with the refugee community. the humanitarian needs remain because many refugees are poor. what we have seen over time is refugees being pushed from poverty to misery. more begging is happening from istanbul. there are children working because their parents are not allowed to work. they do send their children to wor

syria's neighbors, jordan, lebanon, turkey, iraq, and egypt are hosting most of these refugees. before the syria crisis, these countries struggled with high rates of unemployment, and a range of other domestic challenges. since the conflict began, syrian refugees have become a quarter of lebanon's population, and iraq, which has been beset by isis and its conflict is hosting almost 250,000 refugees from syria. until this past summer, few syrian refugees went beyond countries that border their homeland. syrian refugees and migrants formed from a range of countries have since come to europe in such large numbers and so quickly that many european countries, especially front line entry points like greece, transsis countries like serbia, and destination countries like germany have been challenged and even overwhelmed. the u.n. high commission for refugees reports that more than 635,000 refugees and migrants have arrived in europe by sea in 2015 alone. 16% from afghanistan. 6% from eritrea and 5% from iraq. notably only 14% are women. 20% are children. the european crisis requires a r
