INTERNATIONAL ASPECTS OF THE PROTECTION OF CHILDREN’S RIGHTS IN THE CONDITIONS OF WAR IN A GLOBALIZED WORLD

Abstract

In the modern functioning and development of the world community, the problem of protecting the rights of victims during the war does not lose its relevance. At the same time, the issue of protecting the rights of the child is particularly acute, which requires close attention from lawyers, the development of new approaches and ensuring the practical application of existing legal norms designed to protect the child. The problem of the legal status of the child during armed conflicts is complex and combines a number of separate aspects related to individual categories of children who have become participants in the conflict. The aim of the research is to analyse and highlight some of the main regulatory and legal documents of an international nature in the field of protection children’s rights. The following methods are used in the work: a search in the available methodological and scientific literature with an analysis of the material found, induction and deduction, clarification of cause-and-effect relationships, systematization, abstraction and concretization, analysis of documentation. The analysis of this article shows that it is necessary to develop international norms that will regulate the issue of eliminating the involvement of children in armed conflicts and to create an established system of monitoring compliance with international legal norms on the protection of children's rights during armed conflicts.
