After Three Centuries of Migration, What Happened to the Children?
Abstrak
Migration within the last three centuries centres on economics, shifts in government policies, and general concepts surrounding migrating children. However, this chapter asks a fundamental question, ‘what happened to the children? Over the last three centuries, children have been born along the journey. Accompanied and unaccompanied children have been and continue to be the forgotten collateral damage. The chapter explores the critical role of protection, prevention, and harm to migrating children. It addresses gaps and noncompliance with the ratified treaty, the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child over the last three decades, international migration in countries of origin, transit, destination, and return, to include the lifetime of impact on their health.
