"The world is witnessing some of the highest levels of conflict in decades,
with more than 110 armed conflicts occurring across Africa, the Middle East,
Asia, Latin America and Europe.
The impact of these wars on children is vast and multifaceted. The trauma
inflicted is enduring and will shape the rest of their lives — and by
extension, the societies in which they, and we live.
As researchers who study how public policies can intervene to reduce adverse
outcomes for children, we contend that wars are not bound by geography.
Airstrikes terrorize children in conflict zones, while those living in the
nations involved in these conflicts also experience trauma in the form of
poverty, neglect, and discrimination."
