answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/02/2023 answer text <p>The UK is committed to protecting all children affected by conflict. We recognise the differing impacts of conflict on children depending on age and gender and therefore the importance of collecting age and gender disaggregated data to help inform and target our work with international partners to reduce the impact of conflict on children. The UK works closely with UNICEF to ensure the UN-led Monitoring and Reporting Mechanism (MRM) is able to provide the safe and accurate collection of timely, objective and reliable data, including gender and, where possible, age disaggregated data, on the six grave violations perpetrated against children in conflict.</p><p>Between 2021-2022 we provided £250,000 in support of the MRM and continue to champion the MRM through the UN Security Council Working Group on Children and Armed Conflict.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 09/02/2023 16:50:53 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
