Stolen Children: Abduction and Recruitment in Northern Uganda
Report authored by Human Rights Watch detailing the violations that are regularly experienced by children in Uganda. The document focuses on the role of the Lord's Resistance Army in northern Uganda who are reported to have abducted close to 20,000 children since 1986, often forcing them to serve as soldiers, labourers, housemaids, and sexual slaves. Based on field research conducted by Human Rights Watch in northern Uganda during February 2003, the methodology includes interviews with eighteen children who had been abducted, and three others who are now young adults but were abducted as children. Interviews were also conducted with numerous representatives of nongovernmental organisations, religious and civic leaders, UNICEF, local government officials, and representatives of the Ugandan People's Defence Force. Available in PDF only.
