Summary: The book addresses three main questions:
what are the obligations of officers of national
armed forces in relation to children (civilians or
combatants) whom they or those under their
command may encounter while participating in
situations of armed conflict? How realistic and
achievable are these obligations? How can
compliance with them be encouraged,
monitored, and/or enforced?
The book is intended for use particularly by those involved in training of
national armed forces, including officers themselves, and members of
governments, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and inter-
governmental organisations. It is hoped that it will also be of interest to
lawyers, academics and others concerned with ‘child rights’ and related law
and policy.
