🇩🇪 is pleased to co-finance the #GPWMD Counter CBRN Disinformation Initiative with €300,000. Building resilience to disinfo narratives tactics used by certain states to discredit international co-operation, exposing false claims naming those responsible is key. #CWC #BTWC

We raise our hands against the abuse of child soldiers. They are robbed of their childhood - and of their future. Deeply traumatized, they struggle to find their place in society. 🇩🇪 is committed to protect the rights of children in armed conflicts at the 🇺🇳 & beyond. #RedHandDay
