Major risks faced by
The adolescents
Centre for Youth Adolescent Protection
1.
Children entering adolescence face the risk of violence, abuse and exploitation that can take different forms.
2.
In addition to bullying and extreme discipline, adolescents may face gender-based violence, intimate partner violence and violence from gangs or armed groups.
3.
Adolescents who grow up in neglectful homes, belong to minority groups or those with disabilities, are especially vulnerable to violence and abuse.
4.
The digital connectivity creates new ways for bullies, abusers and exploiters to target others.
5.
Conflict and disaster may force them onto risky migration routes. They may be killed or maimed, detained, forced to take on hazardous work, subjected to sexual violence or exploitation, or trafficked.
6.
Child marriage and female genital mutilation also threaten girls’ health and well-being, while for boys, hazardous child labour and recruitment by armed groups pose significant dangers.
