Agenda: Impact of armed conflict on children

Founded in 2006, the United Nations Human Rights Council requires no introduction. It serves as a beacon of hope in a world of injustice, a shining light illuminating all that lies in the darkness. It is a voice for those who cannot speak, and it is roaring especially loud now. Children are the backbone of society. And like any other resource currently, they are being brutally exploited. One in six children live in conflict zones, as you read this, they are being killed, maimed, abducted and recruited by armed groups. Millions of children globally have been displaced, families have been torn apart, sometimes literally. Public bombings slaughter thousands, grave violations become commonplace on the battlefield as people grow accustomed to a life of terror. Will you act as their beacon delegate? Will you shield them from such atrocities? Join this battle in the UNHRC and fight for those who cannot fight for themselves.
