The Support Group for Returnees and Refugees (GARR) calls for guaranteeing the rights of children in Haiti in the face of growing insecurity due to gang violence. This appeal was launched on the occasion of the International Day of Innocent Child Victims of Aggression, Tuesday June 4, 2024.
GARR emphasizes that violence by armed groups exacerbates the precarious living conditions of children. In his note, he denounces the devastating impact of violence on children, worsening their vulnerability and threatening their well-being and their future. He calls on the Haitian authorities and the international community to take urgent measures to protect the rights of children and improve their living conditions.
GARR emphasizes the need for rapid and coordinated action to ensure a safe and stable environment for children in Haiti. It urges relevant stakeholders to work together to end gang violence and ensure that the human rights of children are respected and protected.
