UNICEF are once again drawing our attention to children in danger and renewing their call for an end to violence against children. Across the globe millions of children are in danger. Too many childhoods are broken by the trauma of violence. These children’s stories are hard to tell or listen to – so often we don’t. The violence feeds on our silence, allowing the suffering of children to continue and grow. UNICEF want 2015 to be the year of change and are calling on all UK political party leaders to commit to supporting a new global target to end violence against children everywhere. In September world leaders will agree new global goals that will guide the development of our planet for the next 15 years. UNICEF wants these goals to include a robust target to end violence against children, so that this becomes a priority for all countries.
