Picturing Conflict: Child Perspectives From Their Time With Boko Haram and Their Exit Journeys
This report features the experiences of girls and boys formerly associated with the Boko Haram factions – their entry and exit trajectories and post-exit needs, challenges and aspirations, including as narrated by the children themselves.
