In wartime, children are especially vulnerable to a myriad of risks that deprive them of the opportunity to fully experience childhood and are all too often drawn into hostilities. In the ever-evolving circumstances of armed conflict, how can we provide all children with the protection they are both morally and legally entitled to and ensure that their needs and rights are fulfilled? To address this question, and just after marking the 30th anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the International Review of the Red Cross has chosen to dedicate this issue to children affected by armed conflict.
Australian Red Cross, Save the Children Australia and the International Committee of the Red Cross present this Children and War edition of the Review in a free public webinar from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm AEST on 9 September 2020.
When: 9 September 2020
