![2 April 2022, Palorinya settlement, Obongi district, Uganda: A child plays in the lap of its mother in the Palorinya refugee settlement, Obongi district of northern Uganda. When the COVID-19 pandemic broke out, Ugandan schools were closed for two consecutive years. In the same period, LWF World Service has observed an increase in teenage pregnancies, with 1 in every 3 girls aged 15-18 now either being pregnant or having given birth to a child. The issue is not limited to refugee settlements, as the same trend is seen both in refugee settlements and among host communities. And while the problem is not new, two years of pandemic has meant a dramatic increase, from formerly 1 in every 5 girls.

![9 March 2022, Nyíregyháza, Hungary: A newborn child, 7 days old today, sleeps in its new temporary home in Nyíregyháza, as 23-year-old Paulina tries to offer a pacifier for the child. With the recent influx of refugees arriving in Hungary from the east following the Russian invasion of neighbouring Ukraine, the Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Nyíregyháza Kertváros is working hard to accommodate and support people arriving in the city. 23-year-old mother Paulina alongside her husband, a new-born baby and two daughters, is one of the beneficiaries, staying in a house offered as accommodation for incoming refugees by congregants from Nyíregyháza Kertváros. Being 8-months pregnant when starting the journey from Ukraine to neighboring Hungary, Paulina gave birth to her third child the same day she and her family crossed the border. Having started going into labour while still being on the way, Paulina was rushed from the border crossing to a nearby hospital in Fehérgyarmat in order to give birth. Hospital staff reportedly said it was a miracle the child and mother are both healthy and well.
