In 2016, a United Nations Commission of Inquiry concluded that the Islamic State had committed genocide against the Ezidis. When caregivers’ own safety, belonging, dignity, or agency remain threatened, meeting these needs consistently in children can become more difficult. The Genocide’s Consequences Remain a Lived RealityTwelve years after the attacks, approximately 2,600 Ezidis remain missing. More than 200,000 Ezidis remain displaced, many still living in camps. The genocide is therefore not only a past event in collective memory, but an unresolved context of loss, displacement, and threatened continuity.
