Paragraph
Effective Implementation of the OPSC 2010, para. 91
- Paragraph text
- Such migration, both internal and external, can occur in response to individual imperatives (such as the search for economic or professional opportunities), or to family and communal imperatives in connection with survival strategies or efforts to find suitable social or educational environments for children.

Paragraph
Protection of children from sale and sexual exploitation following humanitarian crisis due to natural disasters 2012, para. 25
- Paragraph text
- During the preparation of this report, it became evident that while children are recognized as being among the most vulnerable to the immediate and long-term effects of a natural disaster, it is currently impossible to accurately determine the full extent of their vulnerability. This is primarily due to a stark absence of empirical evidence on the actual impact of natural disasters on children and raw figures detailing the number of children who are killed, traumatized, unaccompanied, separated from their families, orphaned, displaced or disappeared. Only a handful of States have methodically gathered quantitative data on the number of children who have been unaccompanied, separated, orphaned, displaced or disappeared due to a natural disaster, and only seven of those States submitted data in response to the questionnaire.
