By 2020, the British government will admit around 3,000 'vulnerable' child refugees, including their families if necessary, from war torn regions in the Middle East and North Africa.
"The program is intended for vulnerable children, such as those that are forced into child labor, forced to get married, or compelled to become victims of other forms of exploitation and abuse.
The new program will be realized with the UN High Commissioner for refugees, and it will be available to different risk groups and nationalities from the Middle East and North Africa.
This year, hundreds of refugees are supposed to be admitted, and by 2020 their number will reach 3,000. Aside from that, the British government has promised to admit 20,000 Syrian refugees.
