Abstract EN

Child recruitment has shifted from a Practice characterized by regression and simple support roles to a persistent and widespread phenomenon inn asymmetric conflict, where the armed groupes are attracted to such practice.

This study aims to explore the causes and the mechanisms used to train generations of terrorist children who are pushed to perform combat roles, that affect their human security and their societies, andthe threat extends even to the international peace and security.

They are a generation raised on violence and indoctrination of extremist thoughts and beliefs.

In light of the international community's meager ability to influence these actors due to the continuous change in their structures, their permanent adaptation to the dynamics of the conflict, their weak moral orientation and their lack of commitment to the rules of international humanitarian law, in addition to the difficulty to prosecute the perpetrators of this crime, it is difficult to end this practice.
