Maryanrun is a community health worker and refugee who is helping the International Rescue Committee save children's lives in Mogadishu, Somalia. She visits families who are also displaced and teaches them the signs of malnutrition so that their children can receive medical attention before it is too late. "With our help, they recover," she says.

When conflict and crisis strike, children are hurt the most. Today, there are 65 million displaced people globally, half of whom are children. Research shows that the effects of toxic stress can be reduced, and even reversed, if children have access to high quality education. This sets them up for success, not only in school, but in life.

The war against Boko Haram has created massive displacement and famine-like conditions for 14.8 million affected people in northeastern Nigeria. 5.1 million people are food insecure, and 2.8 million children are severely malnourished. If nothing changes, 205 children will die each day. This crisis is man-made, but the solutions are too. The IRC is scaling up its life-saving response in northeastern Nigeria, but we must do more.
