This rapid review is based on 5 days of desk-based research. It is designed to provide a brief overview of the key issues, and a summary of pertinent evidence found within the time permitted. The first main section provides some background information to disability and the Syria crisis. The second looks at disability prevalence in Syria. The third provides information on what the major donors are doing to address disability in Syria. The fourth looks at the contribution of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF). The final main section presents what the non-government organisations (NGOs) and civil society organisations (CSOs), and disabled persons organisations (DPOs) are doing to address disability in Syria.
