Seyaj Organization for Childhood Protection backed by the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany conducts the second stage of its campaign against child recruitment in the armed disputes in Yemen

Since its creation, Seyaj has given its priorities to stand against child recruitment and protect children from involvement in any violence acts. In 2009, Seyaj opened the file of children in unprecedented way as it demanded the Yemeni government to take real actions to end the child recruitment and engagement in armed disputes.

Government Yemeni officials and activists have cautioned against the risks of child recruitment and involving them in the armed disputes whenever there are no tackles that could reduce this phenomenon.
