Title: An Assessment of Juvenile Justice in Afghanistan
Summary: As of December 2009 there were 600 children in conflict with the law in Afghanistan, representing eighty girls and 520 boys. This number represents nearly a 30% increase from the 455 juveniles who were reported as being detained in January 2008. This assessment represents qualitative research created, gathered, and analyzed from September 2009 through December 2009. In particular, the information included in this research is a result of information received from personal interviews with the use of translators of three hundred and forty-eight persons working or detained within the juvenile system from twenty-eight provinces. The information was obtained with the hopes that there will be an actual coordination of efforts between international and national partners of tangible projects with the aims to achieve positive results for children in conflict with the law in Afghanistan.
