21/ Syrian refugee Karim, 28, rests with his nine-month-old daughter Sherire in the abandoned building where they live in Istanbul, Turkey. Karim and his family gather water from a neighborhood pump, but the building has no doors or windows for protection from the elements. The escalating crisis in the Syrian Arab Republic has resulted in Turkey becoming the world’s largest refugee-hosting country, a ranking that had previously been occupied by Pakistan for more than a decade.
