The forgotten casualties of war: Preserving culture, identity, and the rights of the family after conflict

Families are ultimately the first and last victims of war. They are the first to be destroyed, and in the aftermath, the last to be repaired. Finding justice for families affected by war is complex, and difficulties arise jurisdictionally, in enforcement, and in how to reliably fund recovery projects. This Note analyzes the ongoing War in Ukraine and the atrocities that have been committed against Ukrainian families, focusing primarily on the child victims of cultural genocide, and proposes a system of funding for the rehabilitation of Ukraine's children and the preservation of their familial and cultural identity.
