Abstract | As of present, the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East had left a significant impact on the family and the individual. In the family, it has led to disintegration, role changes, forced migration and asylum. At the individual level, it has had negative impacts in terms of psychology, social and physical wellbeing. Women and children are the most affected by the traumatic events of war and are the most vulnerable to all types of exploitation and abuse. The devastating effects of war on this vulnerable group can hardly be overemphasized. This paper discusses the problems faced by children and women in war and conflict zones. It also explores physical, mental health, social and educational crisis experienced by women and children in Middle Eastern society. |
