Defence for Children International conference - discussing solutions for children deprived of their liberty

International humanitarian law is clear: Babies are #NotATarget. Children are #NotATarget. Civilians are #NotATarget. Hospitals are #NotATarget. Health care workers are #NotATarget. Schools are #NotATarget. Humanitarians are #NotATarget.

Even in the darkest hours, @‌UN personnel are a constant beacon of hope and light. As 2024 draws to a close, I pay tribute to them, particularly those who made the ultimate sacrifice in carrying out our vital mission. We will always carry their memory in all we do.

Spent the morning with parents whose children are in the youth justice system—heartbreaking stories of missed support & avoidable crises. We need pre-crisis intervention, rehabilitation over punishment, & to raise the age of criminal responsibility. The system must change.
