AREAS OF ACTION – CALL FOR COMMITMENTS

The conference aims to increase awareness and understanding among decision makers on the protection challenges that children face.

It will rally states, donors, international organisations, and the humanitarian community to let children’s voices be heard, to promote child rights, and champion the protection of children in armed conflict.

We call for participants to:

   1. Mobilise political commitment to protect children in armed conflict

   2. Secure actions to minimise the impact of armed conflict on children, prevent violations against children, enhance compliance with and ensure accountability for violations of international law

   3. Realise a fully funded, sustainable humanitarian response that is accountable to children 


The conference will produce a chairs’ summary and overview and follow up of commitments announced.
