The civil war in Syria has created the world's worst refugee crisis in twenty years. 2.8 million people have fled their homeland to live in foreign camps, such as the UNHCR camp in northern Jordan.
"I always heard the word refugee but I never imagined I would be one", says Samar Hariri, a grieving school teacher and mother of five. Samar, her husband and their children are just a handful of the 100,000 displaced Syrians who flocked to Camp Zaatari - just a few kilometres from the border with Syria - and who now call it home. Two years ago, collections of tents sat incongruously in the middle of this barren desert. Now a refugee city with a distinctive heart and soul of its own, a community of resilient, hopeful people looks set to grow ever more established. "You ask yourself, why is this happening to me? A person who always had dignity now has none". Once a prosperous, middle class family man, Abu Diaa now focuses on transforming their camp into something resembling home: an essential coping mechanism for enduring life in a refugee camp. It is an impulse Kilian Kleinschmidt, head of Zaatari Camp, understands: "When you lose everything... your home, your belongings, you have lost your identity. Everything has gone." In this deeply moving report we witness the stoicism of a family rebuilding themselves among thousands of others.

3.50 "a man who always had dignity now has none"... to me this man is full of dignity, he takes care of his family in a series of horrific circumstances that could happen to us all ...war is a cancer that destroys constructive living
the sense of family. the resilience and toughness of these people is amazing. they have done so much in such a short space of time, we could all learn from that, they are amazing
they literally live in boxes other people gave them in the dessert.
@@connorshaw-case6030 ok, and? Real poignant observation you made there, could’ve never gathered that from watching the video.
Saudia Arabia and united e
Arab emart r behind the Syria and yamen crisis 🇸🇾🇸🇾🇸🇾🇸🇾
she never imagined that one day shes gonna be a refugee herself,,,unpredictible life indeed
I am Syrian. I have been living in this camp for five years. There are many families whose dreams have been shattered. They are in greatest need of anyone who gives them a hand and help, even if wisely.
U legit have a phone in the camp???
khaled Aljawad Alhussaini Are you still in this camp? Do you know this family?
Finally, some freedom for the refugees to help them start rebuilding. And NOT treating them as if they are a threat or animals. This is absolutely beautiful and inspiring. This is amazing! Absolutely amazing!
Sad tho bc a lot of. Them do become influenced to join false jihad groups at super early ages . It’s super confusing too kids will join radical groups bc their parents were killed by the group… hard to understand but super sad
Awesome documentary and the resilience of the people there ..! The spirit of the human always comes through ....
These children of Syrians i want to hug them so strong and help them! God bless you good strain people! Greetings from azerbaijani
Very sad to see theses kids lose there education and family. Such great loss but very courageous kids.
I'm sure they are learning a lot about survival.... pretty important to know. School is programming.
Wow, they are talented and would be an asset to society. This is impressive. If they can do this with so little, imagine what could be done with some investment. Just brilliant.
Lana Klipfel I will. Thanks for the recommendation. 😊
Somehow I think they will make the camp their new home and try to gain independence like all the micro-country
Soon you will see budy....how talented they are .......gud luck from india.....
@@sagarnishad6412 someone with some experiance and world history knowledge finally enters the fray, the fact europe and many other countries have openly fought multiple wars against islamic states, and then we just invite the next ones in and everyone is so detatched from reality they pat themselves on the back, while inviting in a culture that is more mysognistic authoritatiran, inherenintly supremascist and violent then anything the west has come up with.
whats wrong with them being a asset to there society and going home, why do they need to be in foreign lands taken care of by foreigners taxes, these people do not have any right to come gain access to everything everyone else has built towards while at the same time telling them everything about their culture and ways are wrong. well in that case ill take those glassess and that medicine of your hands for you. and your cars and you can walk back across the dessert to where you came from.
Abu Diaa, the father is an inspiration for all of us. He's a rock and a true man.
Very sad may Allah help the people of syria
My Linh Miles All Hail Assad. Abu Diaa is a Syrian opposition lying piece of BS. Hopefully he never sets foot on Syrian soil again.
James Graham stfu
@@jamesgraham4242 they are all inbreed
@@treepeenbawlz1934 Allah loves Assad.
I admire their Tenacity and Grit!
Can’t help but think at 6:42 how cute that little girl is !!! God bless her
Best wishes and prayers for our Syrian brethren 😔🤲🏻 ❤️🇵🇰
Abu let's stop smoking? Me and you ?
I hope Syria find peace
even if it did, is anyone going to go back? the reason 40-ish% of the migrants were syrian and the rest were everything else is because WAR was not the main reason the syrians or anyone else left the country. it was economics so unless we are into nation building again and we want to rebuild syria from the ground up, or we just put them all on boats and send them back even if syria "finds peace" they lost it in 20 seconds because that entire region has been in a constant state of war and violence for thousands of years. but who funded ISIS i cant remember who gave them those weapons and helped pushed the war in a bloodier direction. hmmmmm. OH YEAH obama...
@@connorshaw-case6030 Why is their country always at war?
This mother is a good teacher, she treats the kids as her own, also see what
true love can bring, the husband defied his family and married for love, therefore
there is no abuse from a forced marriage, only love and togetherness
Amazing, This was an education watching these people do what they are doing, makes you feel so ridiculous when you see the strength & determination the Syrian people show when faced with what little they had & their surroundings. Respect .
I m from india 🇮🇳 I m so happy for Syrian refugees camp improving day by day 😘I think Syria people is so hard work and talented love 💕u all bottom my heart 🇮🇳
There is plenty working force available in this camp. Instead of let them wondering around all day long, is it possible to set up some factory to employ them. Or use them to build some infrastructure.
but how will the aid agencies raise money for their work? they need poor people to stay relevant. anyone who employs these refugees will be called a dirty capitalist and smear campaign will destroy his business
Nepali Hercules. You are right. Similar things also happening here in Hong Kong. Restaurant used to employ many old men and women's servants. But labour right party complain the employer are enslaving the elderliness and so the government ban it. So, the elderliness loss there freedom/right to work. it is just ridiculous.
in nepal the aid agencies accused our carpet manufacturers of hiring child labor and ran a multi million dollar smear campaign in europe and they shut down the entire industry. about 50,000 people were employed and yes some children were employed as well. but these do gooders destroyed 50,000 livelihood and those children they protected had to scavenge the garbage to find food. some ended up in prostitution.
nepali hercules. I think I heard your story about child labor before. These ridiculous human-right parties actually taken/stolen our right/free-willing/liberty in the name of protect you. when I was a child in around 1965, children are free to work for money to share a support to their family. These were all light-duty works such as assembling plastic flowers. Collect the parts from factories, assemble these parts together at home & then return it to the factories. Everybody were happy because they then could have some pocket money to buy toys or food and their parents don't have to gave them pocket money. No one complain the factories were enslaving the children.
Now these ridiculous parties are carry on stealing workers' right to work longer time so as to earn more. They are doing this in the name of protecting their health. This is totally anti-liberty. It is my own freedom and human right to choose to work overtime and even work on holidays, no one should take this right from me.
@@peterkung6793 yeah the people that run the world have demon blood... So thats why everything is so messed up. God bless you in Jesus name.
with all the devastating things these ppl been through it sure doesn't slow them down from having more kids
Annie Louie Syrians on average have 2 to 3 kids, even before the revolution/civil war the birthing average was about 2.3 per woman and you need 2.1 to maintain the same population numbers without increasing it, and that’s in peace. So, it’s not like they’re breeding left and right like in some other countries that shall remain nameless.
This opened my eyes. The war not only takes away money and peace it takes away dignity of the survivors too
Why isnt saudi arabia helping them
Saudi are the main problem for all Islamic countries they want stay in power so they disrupt Syrians and will accept them and they are one who created this war and funding terrorist
Muslims wont assist each other .muslims they leave that to christians,shows you the strength of islam,WEAK!
@@mosapedoterrorist7529 but this is what you guys are not waking up because it is with their weakness are invading you and will invade you even more mark my words you think your Europa is under populated now ? wait till they start bringing more and more it seems you guys want that
they are the real problem who is oppressing the poor muslim people.
Because they are wainting for good welfare from gemany-Europe.
Great Soooourya (SYRIA) ... I love you all...The best is still to come from your off spring... long live great people ... your nation is blessed ... Peace ... You are a living example of bravery.
I'm generally against migration to Europe but this family are genuine refugees and will contribute to society.
This is a good improvement from the other camp video I seen, snow, freezing, no wood to burn or food to eat. Not sure where that other camp was but I hope they are doing well
This was really good. I wish I was rich and could help in so many different ways.
I'm glad these Syrians are doing good in their new home I hope one day they can go back to their homeland, this refugee camp is doing better than a lot of refugee camps that I have seen in the past even though most of them miss their homeland they are doing ok
This city is in Jordan it is actually near Syria near the borders. I am from Jordan but I do live in the states when I go back home every year all I see is Syrian, so this city plus other cities in Jordan as well there is Syrian people, so I see them all over Amman working at restaurant, hotels, cafes and so on. The country is so full and busy, too much traffic too many people.
Truly warmed my heart up aftwr seeinn camps that have been fallem they don't even have water and to see what a camp can do if they work together is amazing truly amazing I send blessing to every person that has made it thru another day ..
Contrariously to those in Greek or Bosnian camps, they aren't setting them ablaze.
Anyone know what has happened to the family since this programme was made?Did their children go back to university?
This is where our overseas aid should go, to help build and maintain these humans dignity in their own climate and within their own culture instead of bringing them to Europe and hoping for the best but getting far from the best outcomes.
Happy to help until they can return to rebuild their country.
Good morning of Syria
I praise and thank God. I ask God humbly to Help these poor refugees.
Such a great and non forgetting documentary.
What a beautiful, resourceful, resilient and hard working family and extended family. Testament to the strength of their parents. Who value education. Something that most parents still do not understand to this day. Education makes one grow. Wether it is in the classroom or through parents and grandparents and cultures and traditions passed down, teaching life lessons to your children will help them grow and adapt to the harshness of life.
Agree 100%
They value education? The people who have engaged in war over sectarianism? Ok Noam Chumpsky ಠಿ_ಠ
i dont believe that Bashar had anything to do with all that is happening in his country and every Syrian who is honest knows that .I know for a fact that he helped protect the GREEK ORTHODOX community in Syria and protected our Churches ,bless him
He is just using them for propaganda purposes so the christian countries don't support the rebels. You think he cares about them?
I'm so happy to see them has a new life..🤗
WOW!!! This people are survivers. They will do just fine and in the future many of this children will be professionals ❤️🌹
If politicians dont want to listen to us Europeans please listen to this honest and genuine Muslim man.
no fortunately politicians listen to the people who vote for them so thankfully spolit brats and foreigners arent in that catagory. so they dont actually need to give a crap what this random man in jordan said. because they dont represent him, they represent the people in there district.
Good Bahrain paid for the school .
good Kuwait sent the mountable houses. Good for Jordan for letting them in
Good for Egypt sending supplies Good thats Saudi Arabia sent them money same as U.A.E.
Good to see Arabs working together with Kurds .
Wow thank you people for helping refugees to become better citizens.god love you so much
God bless all Syrians to be safe and calm quickly.
They so brave , so smart I am speechless
الله يسعدهن ♥️ brings tears to the eyes so much
Excellent stuff.
My mind boggles why Saudi, Oman qatar kuwait are not helping????? They are all very wealthy countries.
Who told you they arent helping? go ask isis members where they get their fundings from
Looks like they are getting help... They have food and supplies
ISIS is Saudi Arabia. Saudi's helped their own agenda perfectly.
@@EmmaGodLovesTruth95 American food, overseen by a predominantly European UN staff guarded by East Asian blue helmets. There's a shocking lack of help from the Gulf while Jordan and Lebanon struggle to help their neighbors as best they can. Even Turkey does more than the Gulf by orders of magnitude
Because they destroyed syria
Best wishes to all those people in the camp. Sorry for your losses
Hopefully their lives will improve, peace and love will prevail 🙏❤🙏
God bless them and keep them safe. God doubly bless the children...so sad.
Talent.. strength... determination. !!! Why can't they fight for their own country the way our people did. ???!!??? Our freedom didn't come cheap. !!!!
Nice family I hope they have a better life
Dignos de admiración! SubhanaAllah!
Wow praise God. May God protect you all through such a hard thing you all never give up but you guys shine bright in this dark world. I send my love and prays to every single one of you. Their should never be such hate, greed, and war for we are all the same race the human race. From the Bar Area California
Journeyman I thought so this is great news info for efforts in order to build their lives in wars.
They are loving people and struggle for his better future, Abu dial is a great man.
This video is still positive that how refugees live their life.
If I will be a millionaire I would help and donate to these people who are displaced 🙏
this is why you dont have money and the world doesnt have nice things.
Connor Shaw-case yes someday soon you will be the first one to know I will let you know coming soon❤️
@@connorshaw-case6030 Boo to you, sir.
So touching💜
I wish our politicians had been smarter and spent money on helping the refugees in their home country, instead of bringing them to Europe.
Amazing ❤
This reminds me of my city Tetouan in Northern Morocco with the Moriscos fleeing from Spain.
Now, you're taking the both route to Portugal. I haven't heard of war in Morocco.
@@bruninhoart What do you mean? I'm referring to the fall of the Granadan kingdom and the Spanish inquisition, during when people fled to North-Africa.
Fantastic. I love this
These people a AMAZING not asking for handouts but Making due
Didn't you notice THEY'RE STEALING?!? This guy has more than everybody else there, and is being celebrated for stealing from his neighbors!!! You didn't see the hords of people complaining about getting cheated & deprived because other refugees TOOK what they should have gotten for their families?
Human nature I guess. Rob, cheat, steal, & lie all because of pride...
And like you, most will turn a blind eye to the evil of it all & calibrate the successful criminal.
Sriracha HOT first ,don’t act like you don’t steal ,second ,all of them are receiving their share of bread and blankets from what I can tell,third this is a SELF SUSTAINING refugee camp,all of them are trying to produce food , third ,if he was stealing,he would be ganged up on and chased ,or even reported to by people to the local government or police ,don’t act like a know it all .
The Japanese internment camps during WWII grew their own food. Why can't they organize mass gardens and grow their own produce. The left over from produce, eggs shells ,hair fingernail clippings, organic materials urine can be composted . Organize collecting the produce/organic material to a compost site let it decay and start growing.
DESERT
soft light It’s literally mentioned that access to water is already a huge issue in this camp, so even if all the problems related to growing food in desert soil can be worked around, they still wouldn’t be able to do any proper farming.
It's like tiny house nation. Or tiny house city
Wow ! These people really endure pain and suffering but they have strong will
Que admirable gente de Siria. Dios les conceda salir adelante.
oh thank heavens, watched too many ugly videos on these camps (and the poison in the posts)...... this looks half decent.
It looks so amazing and lively and the food looks delicious wow. I am so happy these beautiful souls are able to get on with life
Thank Glob they at the very least have access to Adventure Time. There is still yet hope...
Impressive people.
That guy should stop smoking if he loves his family.
this guy must take rifle and start fight dont cry . he have cigaret he dont have rifle. ? he his cowards .
Lol, a Muslim NOT smoking?!? It covers the smell of their lifestyle. They ALL smoke!
jozo z bazin What are you talking about?
oh god help them
It’s impossible not to admire!
Amazing stories....
What a happiness gives me that the refugee camps are becoming cities
Such a start difference of attitude in this camp and that of the IS. No wonder why those people joined the terrorist organisation. The children here getting an education and the children there throwing stones
We are opposed to treating Syrian refugees in inhumane ways. we want to help them live on human dignity and honor. Koreans welcome Syrian refugees with our friendship. apply for Korea to come. We welcom our friends in Syria. cause human beings come first more than anything else. We'd like to treat them with friendship and honor. apply for Korea now.
+Paul Stanley You are a good guy. We need more people like you in this world. specially now
Omg look at the babies 🥺🥺🥺
Belize,Guyana,Suriname,French uina,have a lot of land for resettlement.South Africa,Canada,Australia,Uganda,Kenya ,Panama,Paraguay many countries for resettlement
Family is Life.
These are the people the government should help. These people should have there homes and lands returned to them. May there God protect them and give them the strength to cope until the time comes and they can go home.
Let children be children!
You our a miracle savings these PEOPLE lifes, like this , amazing. thanks GOD.
feeling bad for those children
Those poor kids 😔
Is that Logan in the thumbnail?
This video is inspiring,makes me feel differently.I really think rich Arab countries,and Western leaders need to help more this camp could be a future city.It has all been done so wrong,the flooding of Europe by not genuine refugees a lot of angry men.But watching this you can see what would work rebuilding a new city for their community.
Leaders are responsible for all this,not innocent and including not innocent in the West,its the powerful money money money.Well done to rebuilding,your life it would not be an easy thing to do.
6:40 naaaaw, little angel. May you live forever.
NO
beautiful kids of God!!!
That kid at 6:40...
Any update on this family please?
syrians are beautiful peoples
is they would get away from the hell of islam
These people are so smart & enterprising! climbing up electricity poles to connect the electricity, stealing toilet block bricks to build a house, setting up bakeries...
God willing you will be ok , ill pray for youx
Get knocked down get back up faster, harder. At least you still have your family. Lot of these people lost immediate family. Hopefully they don't loose it all cuz some of it is not aloud. But that mother and father deserve parents of the year. The atrocities they had to endure, barrel bombing ieds, so while keeping family safe, alive.
Oh my heart ♥️ everyone is doing amazing ♥️ but,
Abu diaa and his wife and children are truly beautiful ♥️
I can see the sadness and devastation in both Abu diaa and his wife yet they show such courage and strength towards one and another and towards everyone else ♥️
Beautiful beautiful people ♥️♥️
And to see such beautiful stunning little children is soul destroying ♥️
This shows that “anything is possible” when you put your mind to it ♥️
This family WILL get through this.. it’s written in their eyes ♥️
Good morning of Syria
A safe home for the future generation. Away from bullet, mortar, shell and overall hunger. Hope the will be happy.
love
I have great respect to those people! It's so sad to see this!
Would there happen to be a where are they now?? More wondering on what is happening with this camp city now. I think this is a pretty good idea, just as long as they're not trying to change the laws
Never mind, I found it.
