SRSG on violence against children: Annual report 2015, para. 94
- Paragraph text
- Conflict prevention and resolution calls for the involvement of all actors, including children and young people. Listening to the experiences and opinions of children helps to reveal the hidden face of violence and to capture perceptions, attitudes and behaviour which may fuel increased acts of violence. Children's views help to develop better tools and strategies for prevention and building resilience, for counselling, reporting and reintegration and for evaluating the impact on children's lives.
