Abstract EN
hildhood adversities are widely experienced across the globe and have recently been the focus of a significant increase in public awareness due to the growing number of referred cases and accessible intervention programs.
Childhood adversities increase the risk of short and long-term detrimental effects on academic performance, social relationships and physical and mental health.
The current paper focuses on the experiences of Arab children, particularly in the countries of Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine, Kuwait, Bahrain, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Yemen and Sudan.
Several quantitative and qualitative research studies have emerged on non-war related childhood adversities in the Arab world between the years of 1989 and 2015.
The present review aims to summarize the current literature and discuss the outcomes of childhood adversities and implications for policies and prevention.
