Abstract

The International Criminal Court provides children with special protection. This article aims at delimiting the scope of such a protection in light of the law and jurisprudence of the Court. The Rome Statute affords children with legal protection by criminalizing those offences specifically committed against children, including child soldiering, and those crimes adversely affect children, including attacking schools. In practice, prosecuting crimes against children takes priority for the Court Prosecution. Moreover, child victims are procedurally supported by the Court. They have a right to participate in the Court’, s proceedings as both a witness and a victim. The Court lacks any jurisdiction over persons under 18, but their crimes committed after this age could be prosecuted. Nevertheless, their prior victimhood might be taken into account in determining their sentence as a mitigating factor.
