Who is helping?
Fortunately there are several organizations trying to stop this horrible practice. Among them are War Child International, the United Nations, and the World Bank. War Child International has set up programs for educating and reuniting child soldiers with their families. The World Bank has also established a series of programs aimed at prevention, demobilization, and reintegration of child soldiers into society. The United Nations has drafted a number of resolutions aimed at prevention of child soldiering; among these is the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
