She stated that children account for 30% of the population but represent 41% of all forcibly displaced people.

“Children bear the greatest consequences from war,” she began. “A collective effort to address the physical and emotional manifestations from trauma must meet not only the needs of children in Ukraine but also in Afghanistan, Yemen and so many other often forgotten conflicts that are funded far below levels adequate to meet children’s needs,” she added.

The Salt actress, who also paid a visit to internally displaced refugees in the Ukrainian city of Lviv in May, further stated that, “Local and community-led organizations are innovating new ways to connect children with tools to learn, and nutrition to grow, to help protect them from the worst outcomes of this war, but the global humanitarian response can and must be stronger to ensure this generation of kids have the resources they need to begin healing (sic).”
