In particular, the denial of humanitarian access has had an appalling impact on children in a range of conflict situations. In this framework, the international community has identified six grave violations against children in times of war: recruitment, abduction, killing and maiming, sexual violence, attacks on schools and hospitals and denial of humanitarian access. While protecting children from the horrors of war is both a moral and legal imperative for the international community, violations against children continue unabated. Violations of the rights of the child do not only endanger the lives of children in conflict, but also undermine the overall stability and welfare of our societies.
Any armed conflict produce a devastating, pernicious impact on the life of children, on their bodies and minds. The respect, protection and promotion of the rights of children represent keystones for the full and harmonious development of every society.
