Explore how war and economic collapse have led to a mass exodus of youth from Syria, creating a demographic crisis with long-term implications for the nation. Discover the challenges faced by those who remain and the urgent need for political solutions.


The war and economic conditions in Syria have created a repellent environment for the youth, forcing many to flee in search of safety and a decent life. The demographic situation is alarming, with a significant decline in the young population, which experts warn could lead to long-term societal issues.

The ongoing conflict has resulted in a staggering 6.8 million refugees, predominantly young people, who have sought refuge in 129 countries. The internal displacement and migration crisis is exacerbated by security concerns and a deteriorating economic situation, leading to high unemployment and poverty rates.

Recent surveys reveal a dark picture for the youth in Syria, characterized by anxiety, depression, and lost opportunities due to years of violence. Many young Syrians are hesitant to return without guarantees of safety and political stability, raising concerns about the future of the nation as it risks becoming an aging society.
