Twenty years ago, denouncing the massive violations of the rights of children affected by armed conflict, Graça Machel wrote: “There are few further depths to which humanity can sink”. In 2006, the UN Study on Violence against Children started completing the most appalling of catalogues: the catalogue of evils and wrongs, of suffering and trauma, of abysmal gaps, missed opportunities and enormous challenges. Going through this catalogue is an eye-opening and heart breaking exercise.
