| Child holding poster in Uganda. |
Every day children in Uganda
are affected by conflict, suffer from violence, neglect, abuse and exploitation
at home, in schools, in institutions, in the community.
Ugandan children have gone
through different challenges e.g. children in northern Ugandan have seen the
worst violence because they have witnessed violence themselves such as forcing
young boys to join the army at an early age which traumatizes them emotionally,
young girls are being raped and become mothers at an early age and they cannot
to take care of their babies and in the process of raping them some men are
affected with HIV which becomes more worse to the young girls and to babies
which are being born and without freedom
from violence sustainable development cannot be fully
achieved.
