Vulnerabilities of Syrian refugee children in Turkey and actions taken for prevention and management in terms of health and wellbeing.

CONCLUSIONS: The interventions and restructuring of the health system in Turkey contribute to the SDG number 3 for refugee children. The existence of a legal system which enables refugee access to health, protection, and other social services is key to achieve this goal. However, the existing system could be improved especially through solidifying the legal basis and centralizing the implementation for child and refugee protection. The engagement of all stakeholders to improve the health and wellbeing of refugee children remains vital. PMID: 32739068 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
