If we don't take care of these children and there a risk that, especially if they live in neighbouring countries, if I don't go to school, they don't have hope," Bibeau told The Canadian Press from the first World Humanitarian Summit in Istanbul. Marie-Claude Bibeau said Monday that too little of the already insufficient amount of global humanitarian assistance is being directed to educate children forced to flee their homes. Bibeau was representing Canada at the first major summit that is trying to reshape the world aid architecture to help it better deal with the estimated 125 million people that require humanitarian assistance, including 60 million forced from their homes. Despite the soaring needs in places such as Syria and Sub-Saharan Africa, the UN faces a $15-billion funding shortfall in humanitarian funding. The two-day gathering is an effort to address what the United Nations says is the most pervasive degree of humanitarian disaster since the end of the Second World War. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
