Monthly Roundup June 2024

JUNE 2024 SPECIAL UPDATE – OPEN DEBATE ON CHILDREN AND ARMED CONFLICT

On June 26, 2024, the Security Council will hold its open debate on children and armed conflict (CAAC), under the Republic of Korea’s presidency. The Special Representative of the Secretary General for Children and Armed Conflict (SRSG-CAAC) will present the Secretary-General’s (SG) 2024 annual report on CAAC (forthcoming), covering the period from January 1 to December 31, 2023.

In view of the upcoming open debate, Watchlist recommends that the Security Council and other UN Member States:

Strongly reiterate support for the UN’s CAAC agenda and demand increased compliance with international law and child protection norms;

Strengthen the effective use of existing mechanisms and tools to monitor, report, and respond to grave violations; and

Redouble efforts to prevent grave violations against children and protect their rights in war.

Report | An Overview of the 2024 Annual Meeting for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action

"The Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action organised the 2024 Annual Meeting for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action in Panama City, Panama from the 4th to 6th of June. The Annual Meeting focused on protecting children in escalating conflict and crises, with a specific focus on armed violence, climate shocks, and displacement in the Latin America and Caribbean region."

The impact of citizen evidence: experiences from Northern Uganda

"It has also produced two great reports that are keeping their communities informed and engaged: One Step Forward, Two Steps Back, and The Lion, the Leopard, the Hyena and the Fox. Their evidence has brought community leaders of different ages and genders into political engagement with those that seek to speak for them, or blame them, or co-opt them. They say they feel more powerful and better respected and are making more headway."

Central African Republic: helping former child soldiers rebuild their lives

In the south of the CAR, we help former child soldiers and minors left alone because of the war to rebuild their lives, offering psychological assistance, support for schooling and vocational training, and facilitating their reintegration into their families and communities.

Communities need support to care for children returning home, just as the thousands of boys and girls leaving the armed forces to rebuild their future need it.

A HOLISTIC, HEALING–CENTERED APPROACH TO INDIVIDUAL AND COLLECTIVE TRAUMA

"Traditional peacebuilding emphasizes resilience and overlooks trauma's multigenerational impact; while healing–centered peacebuilding (HCP), a holistic approach, acknowledges social determinates and incorporates community–based practices to foster collective wellbeing."

"HCP offers a holistic alternative, prioritizing healing as a pathway to building peace. This approach emphasizes the importance of addressing underlying wounds and anxieties stemming from violence and conflict. HCP seeks to decolonize mental health by building systems focused on justice, healing, and human potential. This approach prioritizes community–based healing practices that are culturally grounded, drawing on Indigenous knowledge and resources to create safe spaces for healing and growth in conflict–ridden communities."

African elephants address each other by name, new study shows

"A groundbreaking study on African elephant communication has revealed that elephants, like humans, use ‘names’ to address each other. Researchers at Save the Elephants, Colorado State University, and ElephantVoices have recorded vocalisations from wild African elephants in Kenya that suggest they address each other with individually specific calls dubbed ‘vocal labels’."

Key results of the study:

Scientists have uncovered a distinctive "vocal label" in elephant calls, similar to a name.

Unlike other nonhuman species with names, African elephants seem to address each other without copying the receiver’s calls.

When ‘vocal labels’ were played back, elephants responded energetically to those addressed to them, approaching the source and vocalising in response.

‘Vocal labels’ were more common among elephants communicating over long distances or adults addressing calves than among adults addressing each other at close distance. They were also more likely to be produced by adults than by juveniles, suggesting that it may take elephants several years to learn to address one another by name.

The Great Elephant Migration

A symbolic herd of 100 magnificent Indian Elephants are embarking on a global migration to promote coexistence!

July 2024 - July 2025

"The Great Elephant Migration is a global fundraising adventure to amplify indigenous knowledge and inspire the human race, to share space. A collaboration between indigenous artisans, contemporary artists and cultural institutions, it will raise millions of dollars to power human-wildlife coexistence projects and protect migratory animals making spectacular journeys across land, rivers, skies and oceans."
