South and Central Somalia1 has been the scene of armed conflict since the collapse of Siad Barre's government twenty years ago. Children born in 1991 in this part of Somalia and who are entering their 20th year have never known respect for human rights, peace, the rule of law and an effective government. Amnesty International delegates interviewed refugees who had recently fled Somalia, to get as much as possible, an up-todate description of the situation in their country. This report also includes testimonies from adults who suffered human rights abuses when they were children, or who shed light on children's experiences.
