Account must also be taken of vulnerable groups namely, women and children.

This breaks our hearts, especially where it affects children and the most vulnerable.

The Government has taken preventive action to protect particularly vulnerable children, especially girls.

The Government's recently launched national plan of action for orphans and other vulnerable children was a major milestone towards improving the lives of children made vulnerable by HIV AIDS, poverty and other social and economic factors.

Although children do not start wars, they are most vulnerable to its deadly effects.

Victims of natural disasters are extremely vulnerable to abuse and exploitation, particularly women and children.

Young children, especially girls, are vulnerable to early sexual abuse and exploitation within and outside families.

The Committee is also concerned that societal discrimination persists against vulnerable groups of children, including children with disabilities, street and rural children, children born out of wedlock, orphans and fostered children and children affected or infected by HIV AIDS.

In the chaos, some children were separated from their families, leaving them vulnerable to abuse and exploitation.

Increased emphasis on crime victims and vulnerable groups such as children consistent with international guidelines and standards

A new back to school programme had to be launched targeting some 250,000 vulnerable and returnee children.

This system should cover all children up to the age of 18 years, with specific emphasis on early childhood, particularly children belonging to vulnerable groups.

(h) Developing initiatives for the rights, protection and well being of war affected and vulnerable children and adolescents

In our statement last year, we mentioned that children are more vulnerable and more prone to road accidents.

OIOS also noted the paucity of programmes and facilities to empower, protect or assist vulnerable women and children.

First, we should keep in mind that the most vulnerable people in armed conflict are women and children.

This system should cover all children up to the age of 18 years, with specific emphasis on those who are particularly vulnerable, including children living in poverty, children with disabilities and children from single parent families.

Participants stressed that the rights of young children, particularly those belonging to more vulnerable groups, such as disabled children, girls, children belonging to minority or indigenous groups, children of migrant workers, children placed in institutions, children living in poverty and children in foster care, were being infringed.

General measures for the protection of refugee children, including those related to education, make children less vulnerable to becoming victims of exploitation, including sexual exploitation or abduction.

WFP participated in a joint UNICEF WFP USAID UNAIDS orphans and vulnerable children rapid assessment, analysis and action planning exercise in 14 of the 17 countries selected to provide impetus to national strategy development and United Nations programme alignment in support of orphans and vulnerable children.

Still, UNICEF needs to do more to encourage attention to affected or vulnerable children and adolescents in country proposals.

The World Bank and UNICEF joined forces to convene the Second Global Partners Forum for orphans and vulnerable children.

The large majority of our children belong, as I already mentioned, to the most vulnerable strata of the Venezuelan population.

Single parent children are an especially vulnerable category in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and this is war related.

Since 1997, the groups Women and Children have been defined as vulnerable ones, mostly due to their high morbid mortality.

b. Care and support for orphans and vulnerable children (including their parents and care givers) and PLWHA in a community

More generally, States parties should raise awareness about discrimination against young children in general, and against vulnerable groups in particular.

In addition, to raise attention and resources for orphans and other children made vulnerable by AIDS, UNICEF will pursue a six year Global Campaign on HIV AIDS and Children.

What this demonstrates, I think, is how impressionable and vulnerable we are in the face of a story, particularly as children.

(g) States should place increased emphasis on crime victims and vulnerable groups such as children consistent with international guidelines and standards

The primary victims of these measures are the most vulnerable groups of the population children, women, the elderly and disabled persons.

The existing child rights committees had been strengthened and a national programme to assist orphans and vulnerable children had been formulated.

In fact, children had been a priority for the Office for some years because there were particularly vulnerable to humanitarian crises.

Accordingly, strengthening family and community based care and support to orphans and other vulnerable children was high on the SADC agenda.

Currently, a regional policy on orphans and vulnerable children was being developed and would be adopted by the end of 2006.

The programmes included registration of the birth of every child, awareness creation activities as well as reintegration programmes for street children, HIV AIDS orphans, commercial sex workers and other vulnerable children.

With respect to children, it was expected that their situation would improve once peace had been totally restored and the Government began to implement its programmes for underprivileged and vulnerable children.
