Stop the War on Children:
Gender Matters!

Wars and conflicts are intensifying and becoming increasingly dangerous for children. Whilst fewer children are living in conflict-affected areas, those who do face the greatest risk of falling victim to serious violence since systematic records began.

This report, Stop the War on Children: Gender Matters, focuses on how conflict affects girls and boys differently, sets out the basis for an international plan of action to protect children in conflict, and the ways humanitarian actors can improve their responses to be more sensitive to both age and gender.
