Mtumiaji:Tatianna20/Athari za vita kwa watoto
Idadi ya watoto katika maeneo yenye mapigano yenye silaha ni karibu milioni 250.[1] Watoto hawa wanakabiliana na madhara ya kimwili na kiakili kutokana na athari za kuishi maeneo yenye vita.
"Migogoro ya silaha" inaweza kuelezewa katika njia kuu mbili kulingana na Sheria ya Kimataifa ya Kibinadamu: "1) migogoro ya kimataifa ya silaha, kupinga Mataifa mawili au zaidi, 2) migogoro ya silaha isiyo ya kimataifa, kati ya vikosi vya serikali na makundi yasiyo ya kiserikali, au kati ya makundi hayo pekee.[2]
Watoto katika maeneo ya vita wanaweza kutumika katika maswala ya uhalifu, na kuwa askari watoto. Inakadiriwa kuwa kuna takriban wanajeshi watoto 300,000 duniani kote na asilimia 40 kati yao ni wasichana.[3][4]Watoto pia ni waathirika wa migogoro ya silaha, wanalazimika kuhama,[5] wanaugua magonjwa ya zinaa na wananyimwa fursa za elimu.[6]
