- Abstract
The use of children in armed conflict is not a new phenomenon. There continues to be an increase in the utilization of children in armed conflict across the globe, despite international and human rights laws and numerous resolutions passed by the United Nations. Intergovernmental organizations, nongovernmental organizations, and aid groups have developed Disarmament, Demobilization, Rehabilitation, and Reintegration (DDRR) programs to address dealing with children used in armed conflict. To be successful these programs must understand and address the underlying causes that allow the recruitment of children into armed conflicts.
