Table 1 presents an overview of data collected by Franet on the number of children who fled Ukraine registered in each Member State.
The starting point for collecting the data, or data reference point, are frequently different for each Member State, depending on the sources and reporting periods. Many of the totals are derived from additional contextual information or different sources. For example, some of the data sources are authorities responsible for education, while in others are border police or child protection authorities. These caveats should be considered when interpreting or comparing the data.
