UNITED NATIONS Will Middlebrooks Jersey , March 14 (Xinhua) -- An estimated 3.7 million Syrian children, about 1 in 3 of all Syrian children, have been born since the conflict began five years ago, their lives shaped by violence, fear and displacement, the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) said Monday.
This figure includes 306 Tyler Thornburg Jersey ,000 children born as refugees since 2011, said the UN agency in a report issued here as the Syrian conflict enters its sixth year this week.
In total, UNICEF estimates that some 8.4 million children -- more than 80 percent of Syria's child population -- are now affected by the conflict, either inside the country or as refugees in neighbouring countries.
""In Syria, violence has become commonplace, reaching homes Travis Shaw Jersey , schools, hospitals, clinics, parks, playgrounds and places of worship,"" said Peter Salama Stephen Vogt Jersey , UNICEF's regional director for the Middle East and North Africa. ""Nearly 7 million children live in poverty, making their childhood one of loss and deprivation.""
According to the report titled ""No Place for Children,"" UNICEF verified nearly 1,500 grave violations against children in 2015. More than 60 percent of these violations were instances of killing and maiming as a result of explosive weapons used in populated areas.
More than one-third of these children were killed while in school or on their way to or from school.
In Syria's neighboring countries, the number of refugees is nearly 10 times higher today than in 2012. Half of all refugees are children. More than 15,000 unaccompanied and separated children have crossed Syria's borders.
""Five years into the war Scooter Gennett Jersey , millions of children have grown up too fast and way ahead of their time,"" Salama said. ""As the war continues, children are fighting an adult war, they are continuing to drop out of school, and many are forced into labour, while girls are marrying early.""
In the earlier years of the conflict Ryan Braun Jersey , most of the children recruited by armed forces and groups were boys between 15 and 17 years old, and they were used primarily in support roles away from the front lines.
However, since 2014, all parties to the conflict have recruited children at much younger ages -- as young as seven -- and often without parental consent.
More than half of the UNICEF-verified cases of children recruited in 2015 were under 15 years old, compared with less than 20 percent in 2014. These children are receiving military training and participating in combat, or taking up life-threatening roles at the battle-front Robin Yount Jersey , including carrying and maintaining weapons, manning checkpoints, and treating and evacuating the war wounded.
Parties to the conflict are using children to kill, including as executioners or snipers.
One of the most significant challenges to the conflict has been providing children with learning. School attendance rates inside Syria have hit rock bottom. UNICEF estimates that more than 2.1 million children inside Syria, and 700,000 in neighbouring countries Paul Molitor Jersey , are out-of-school.
In response, UNICEF and partners launched the ""No Lost Generation Initiative"", which is committed to restoring learning and providing opportunities to young people.
""It's not too late for Syria's children. They continue to have hope for a life of dignity and possibility,"" Salama said. ""They still cherish dreams of peace and have the chance to fulfill them.""
The report called on the global community to undertake five critical steps to protect a vital generation of children. The efforts should be made to end violations of children's rights, lift sieges and improve humanitarian access inside Syria, secure 1.4 billion U.S. dollars in 2016 to provide children with learning opportunities.
The report also urged the international community to restore children's dignity and strengthen their psychological wellbeing and turn funding pledges into commitments.
UNICEF has received only six percent of the funding required in 2016 to support Syrian children both inside the country and those living as refugees in neighboring countries.

BEIJING， June 3 (Xinhua) -- The Chinese sportswear industry is expected to expand rapidly over the next five years， but expansion by existing foreign market leaders and new entrants will intensify competition， according to a report by international ratings firm Fitch.
Fitch forecast that the sportswear market in China will be worth about 300 billion yuan (45.6 billion U.S. dollars) by 2020 from 100 billion yuan in 2015 based on the General Administration of Sports' five-year plan， which projects that over 435 million Chinese people will do regular exercise by 2020.
Leading foreign sportswear entities will accelerate expansion into lower-tier cities in China to tap into the new consumer base， which account for about 50 percent of the gross sportswear market in China.
They will be supported by their strong brand recognition and product offerings across different price tiers. For instance， nearly half of the new stores opened by Adidas in the past five years were located in lower-tier cities.
With rising disposable income and a shift toward more healthy lifestyles， consumers in lower-tier cities may seek more value in brand identity and product differentiation， which are areas of weakness for domestic brands.
Fitch expects foreign players to continue to lead the sportswear market in top-tier cities in the next five years and smaller domestic manufacturers' margins to come under pressure due to increasing competition， their limited pricing flexibility to distributors and rising labor costs.
