Abstract

Children in conflict countries are exposed to difficulties with an austere point of view for their future. People residing in conflict-affected areas are denied their right to education, admittance to aptitudes and information, and the path to a superior life for themselves and their country. The present investigation is descriptive. In the current examination, the investigator studied recent related literature and secondary data extensively like books, ebooks, journals, editorials, and other reliable sources, which put forwarda more prominent understanding of all possible and practical aspects of the research problem at hand.The exploration reveals that conflict has taken a heavy toll on children and their right to education concerning mental and physical health, school attendance, school closure, and schooling capacity reduction. In addition to that, appalling levels of massacring, mutilating, recruitment and denial of humanitarian access, committing rape and other forms of sexual violence, engaging in attacks on schools; and abducting children in armed conflict situations came under the domain of violations against children.
