  • Summary

  • For the first time in 10 years, the U.S. will not be issuing any full waivers to partner nations found to be in violation of the Child Soldiers Prevention Act - which restricts government military funding to countries that use or recruit child soldiers. In 2020, the United Nations reported more than 8,000 children were actively being used in combative conflicts across the globe, although most were not forced into military service by state actors. To learn more about child soldiers, we are joined by Keely Hutton, author of Soldier Boy, an eye-opening story about a child soldier abducted to fight in Uganda’s decades-long civil war. Keely Hutton, welcome to Feminism Today.
