War and the youth
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

In recent times and times past, there have been seris of various kinds of wars.Ranging from civi to world war.
Unfortunately, a set of people are always forgotten and a nother set is always talked about.That is the women and child ren are always said to be the most affected.but what about the youth who are the main and geatest people playing an active role in the whole scandrum.
The youth widely known in every soiciety to be one of the most important asset a nation can have are destryed.
There is therefore the need that the issue of the youth is taken into consideration in times of war and some stratagies should be developed to help victims and mass education should be set out to the youth to prevent on coming ones.

Its true
The perpetrators of any kind of war always exploit the youths.Reason being that the youths provide a readily available service sometimes free of charge.

There is great need for mass education targeting the youth specifically on peacebuilding,non-violence communications and alternative disputes resolutions.This should also be coupled with providing practical alternatives to the lives of the vulnerble youth.The question being,what else can they do if they stop fighting?

Its a great challenge though we are the ones to resolve it,for it concerns us.
