In the midst of the television coverage of Soccer Aid, a celebrity soccer match organised by Unicef, the audience was told that 鈥渙ne in six children around the world are currently living through war鈥�.

Listener Isla got in touch with More or Less to ask whether the claim was correct, so we tracked down the source to an organisation called the Peace Research Institute Oslo.

Research director Siri Aas Rustad tells us how they worked out a figure for the number of children living near to a 鈥渃onflict鈥� and the big differences between that and something most people would think of as 鈥渨ar鈥�.

If you鈥檝e seen a number you think we should look at, email the team on moreorless@bbc.co.uk
