I would like to start with some statistics. According to UNICEF, 10 million children were traumatized by war in the past decade. Furthermore, in armed conflict, children are the most vulnerable group in society and are often subjected to rape, sexual violence and abduction. Tens of thousands of children continue to be recruited, killed, maimed or deprived of their rights to education and health care. Poverty and conflict are frequently obstacles, as children barely in their teens are compelled to support hungry families or forced to become child soldiers or comfort wives.
