Borderlands: the journey no child should have to make
Every year thousands of unaccompanied children trudge across the border between Afghanistan and Iran; some as young as 10 years old. Many never return, those who do are alone and vulnerable - miles from home. This is the story of that journey and the extraordinary lengths our staff go to, to reunite them with their families.
