The Faces of the Syrian Refugee Crisis

This fall we read a Scope article on the Syrian Refugee Crisis- In "Swimming for her Life"  we read about Yusra Mardini's incredible journey from war-torn Syria to the Olympic Games (November Scope page 10).  We have also watched two videos about children refugees.  You are going to choose a topic connected to the Syrian Refugee crisis to research and create an Infographic which will explain the topic to other people who might not be informed.
Possible topics to explore:

     Children Refugees
     Why people leave Syria?
     Where do the refugees go when they leave?
     Settlement Camps
     Where is Syria?  (Background information)
     What is the conflict in Syria about?
