She cited statistics on children affected by the war, including deported and/or forcibly transferred children.

Generally, this event was aimed to explore pressing issues from the fields of science, society, and policy, and provided a platform for international, interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral debate. The scientific symposium 鈥楥rises and the Importance of Research: How Prepared Can We Be?鈥� invited international experts to explore how research contributes to responding to and preparing for multiple and entangled crises of our times.
