The first topic: Protect children from wars.

When any war breaks out, children become the weakest and most vulnerable beings in its midst, as they are exposed to grave violations committed against them, including killing, abuse, sexual assault, and direct bombing of schools, hospitals, and other public life facilities. They were and still are targets on the front lines, forcing their survivors to migrate from conflict areas to conflict areas. It is assumed that they are safe, so they are once again vulnerable to slavery, human trafficking, or recruitment into armed militias.

In light of this environment in which there is no sense of security and safety, all studies conducted on children who witnessed death in all its forms during the war showed that they suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder, or what is called post-traumatic stress disorder, which is a mental and psychological condition that stays with them for a long time.Or perhaps all their lives they have been provoked by the frightening event to which they were the first eyewitness.

Through our drawings and creativity, we shout at the top of our voices, “All together to stop the war in the Middle East and the world.”

“All for a safe childhood.”
