Stimson Center | In-Person & Virtual Event

Description: February 12, 2024, marks the 22nd anniversary of the entry into force of the landmark UN treaty banning the use of child soldiers. To mark the occasion, join the Stimson Center for an expert discussion of U.S. efforts to end the recruitment and use of child soldiers worldwide through use of the 2008 Child Soldiers Prevention Act (CSPA). The event will highlight the CSPA’s potential as a child soldier prevention tool, examine its application and impact to date, and consider opportunities to strengthen the law’s implementation in the years to come.
