He also stated that UNICEF will have a field program during Ramadan with a number of journalists, for meeting local officials and a number of smuggled children and their families. This is aiming at acquainting the journalists with the problem, so that they could be able to write freely and in a manner that they think it is appropriate to raise public awareness of combating the phenomenon.
