All members of a society suffer the consequences of armed conflicts in their area. However, the magnitude of these consequences for vulnerable groups, especially children, is often poorly understood. Children are faced with many aspects of war and the consequences affect both their physical and psychological development. International humanitarian law grants extended protection to children. In the event of international or non-international armed conflict, children benefit from the general protection granted to civilians not participating in the hostilities.
