State measures to protect the rights of children on the territory of Ukraine under martial law

The relevance of the study is due to the fact that in the conditions of war, Ukrainian children experience physical, psychological, and social difficulties. In these difficult conditions, the state must guarantee children, as the most vulnerable segments of the population, safety and protection. The purpose of the study is to determine what measures are appropriate to implement or have already been implemented to protect the rights of children under martial law and determine their effectiveness. For obtaining complete and objective information the methods of system analysis, concretisation and abstraction, determinism, induction, and deduction are used. The paper analyses the methods and measures of the state to protect the rights of children in Ukraine during the war. The legal framework regulating the protection of children’s rights under martial law is considered. It is noted that the examination of methods of protecting the rights of children under martial law is of great importance for improving the quality of life of children and improving the situation with their safety. The results of the study justify that the state should guarantee a safe place for children to live and study; it should also conduct safe evacuation of children to other cities or countries and provide assistance in moving to other areas. It is also important to ensure that children have access to healthcare. In addition, the state should provide children with the opportunity to receive education in a safe environment, in particular, remotely. In addition to physical safety, children should be protected from the negative consequences of war from a psychological standpoint. The study is practically relevant for law enforcement, as it provides a deep understanding of what measures should be taken to ensure the protection of children’s rights during martial law
