The Office works with UN agencies and with non-governmental organisations that have programs in particular countries and conflict areas. Its role includes building awareness of the needs of war-affected children; proposing ideas and approaches to enhance the protection of children in war; bringing together key actors within and outside the UN to promote more concerted and effective responses; and undertaking humanitarian and diplomatic initiatives to unblock difficult political situations.
The site includes access to key reports, field missions, information on campaigns and international law, and press releases.
