Protection requirements for girls associated with armed groups
By: Hobson M
Produced by: Save the Children Fund, 2005
This report addresses the protection issues for children associated with armed groups and, more specifically, to the largely unrecognised protection requirements of girls. It draws on recent research conducted in the DRC, Rwanda and west Africa, as well as programme experience from Sri Lanka and many of the other countries where Save the Children works.
It shows how girls are being overlooked in current efforts to release children from armed groups and support their return home, challenges existing systems, and argues that the international community must fund programmes designed to meet girls’ needs.
