What is/are the issue/s that you think you would like to focus on? Why?
My first choice would be the child soldiers. I would like to investigate upon the issue of child soldiers since I feel that the issue is one of the most cruel upon the topic of Human Rights. I find it hard to believe that governments would force a child to step on a mine just to ensure the safety of other elder soldiers. I find that burning down the parent's houses to force a child to be in the army an act of atrocity. Many children have died because of these armies without conscience. I want to find out how many children are being mistreated and in what ways. When I write a biography about a certain person, I would write a fictional biography about a child who was forced to join the army in either Uganda or Myanmar. If it was in Uganda, the army is called "Lord's Resistance Army" which is an opposition of the government. If it was in Myanmar, I would choose the government itself as almost 20% of the army are made from child soldiers.
