Abstract

Iskorištavanje djece u svrhe ratovanja izniman je problem modernog svijeta. Djeca vojnici
podrazumijevaju djevojčice i dječake koji sudjeluju u oružanim sukobima na različite načine, a
zauzimaju širok raspon uloga od boraca, vratara, kuhara do glasnika, no uključeni su i u
seksualno iskorištavanje. UNICEF kaže da je trenutačno 300.000 djece uključeno u oružani
sukob na globalnoj razini, iako je stvarnu pojavu ovog problema teško utvrditi. U svrhu bolje
zaštite prava djece, Fakultativni protokol uz Konvenciju o pravima djeteta o uključivanju djece u
oružane sukobe prihvaćen je 2002. godine. U njima je minimalna dob za izravno sudjelovanje u
oružanim sukobima određena na 18 godina, a uz to ističu i posebnu ranjivost djece i važne
posljedice koje takvo iskustvo ima na njihovu sigurnost i odgovarajući razvoj.

Abstract (english)

The use of children for war purposes is an exceptional problem of the modern world. Child
soldiers include girls and boys who participate in armed conflicts in various ways, and the roles
they occupy include a wide range of fighters, gatekeepers, cooks, messengers, and are used for
the purpose of sexual exploitation. UNICEF says that 300,000 children are currently involved in
armed conflict globally, although the actual incidence of this problem is difficult to determine. In
order to better protect the rights of children, the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the
Rights of the Child on the involvement of children in armed conflicts was adopted in 2002.,
where the minimum age for direct participation in armed conflicts is set at 18 years, and
highlights the special vulnerability of children and the significant consequences that such
experience has on their safety and proper development.
