communities on the adverse effects of child marriage so as to bring a societal change and shift in values. H. Protection of the family 54. The Committee notes with appreciation that the Constitution of Senegal under Article 17 provides for family rights and family protection and therefore, insists the Government to take further steps to practically and effectively protect the family, including by reducing family poverty, extending the reach of cash transfer schemes, and prevent separation of children from their families. I. Special Protection Measures Children in armed conflicts 55. The Committee commends the State Party for the measures being taken to protect children affected by the Casamance armed conflict, including by improving the prevention of accidents caused by landmines and by providing child landmine victims with psychosocial and material assistance. However, the Committee remains concerned that landmines and explosive remnants of war still continue to pose a threat to countless children across the country. Thus, the Committee recommends that the State Party reinforce its efforts to demine former conflict areas, including by ensuring effective implementation of the humanitarian demining programme and providing adequate human, technical, and financial resources to the National Anti-Mine Centre of Senegal. Further, the Committee recommends the state party to address the physical, psychological and social reintegration needs of children affected by the conflict and to mobilise childfocused recovery funding as a core element of post-conflict reconstruction, building human capital by investing in children’s education, healthcare, protection, mental health and psychosocial support Children in conflict with the law 56. While commending the significant efforts made by the Government of Senegal for juvenile justice, including by establishing juvenile courts throughout the country, the Committee recommends that the state party hastens the revision of the Penal Code and the Penal Procedure Code and ensure that they provide for the opportunity to combine juvenile justice with child protection, so that children aged 13-18 who are in conflict with the law get assistance and protection, as well as benefit from a broad range of alternative and educative measures, including defined alternative measures to detention, at the pre-arrest, pre-trial, trial and post-trial stages. 17
