We call upon Israel to end it starvation campaign against the Palestinian people in Gaza. The international community should enact an arms embargo and also sanction Israel to ensure it complies with international law. There needs to be an earnest push for a permanent ceasefire.

The UN is calling the Israel-Hamas war a 'graveyard of children' making up around 40% of the casualties in the conflict. It’s devastating, now and into the future, writes @poleary17 (@Griffith_Uni). theconversation.com/the-un-i…

It’s often the most vulnerable who suffer most in war. That remains true, with children making up around 40% of the casualties in the Israel-Hamas conflict. It’s devastating, now and into the future.

With catastrophe looming, the world cannot turn its back on Afghanistan’s children

With 95% of households in Afghanistan not consuming enough food and the economy on the brink of collapse, this is a perilous time for the children of the country.

Today saw the launch of the National Strategy to Prevent and Respond to Child Sexual Abuse. In our @ConversationEDU piece we flag its strengths but the need to work with survivors and CYP to ensure it achieves it goals. @poleary17 @SAMSNaus @ACCPUniSA bit.ly/2ZshmOA

Does the government’s new national plan to combat child sexual abuse go far enough?

While the plan responds to many recommendations by the royal commission, it doesn’t adequately address at-risk youth or say how it will involve survivors in shaping and overseeing strategies.
