Abstract

We analyze the impact of situations of forced displacement on the mental health of children who are forced to initiate a mandatory migration - alone or accompanied by relatives - by not guaranteeing their safety and the protection of their fundamental rights by their own State, and considering war conflicts the main reason for their departure. For this purpose a narrative bibliographical review has been carried out, using reports from international organizations, NGOs and articles of researchers in which childhood and especially childhood subjected to situations of violation of rights is their center of attention.
