  1. I thank the Niger for organizing this open debate. I also welcome our young briefers. This debate is timely and relevant. (spoke in English) Yesterday we celebrated the first International Day to Protect Education from Attack. In 2011, resolution 1998 (2011) called to ensure that schools are protected and expanded the listing criteria of the annual report of the Secretary-General on children and armed conflict to include attacks on schools and attacks on, and threats to, education personnel. In 2014, in resolution 2143 (2014), the Council recognized that the military use of schools is critically affecting children’s access to education but decided not to expand listing criteria, calling instead for Member States to take “concrete measures” to deter the military use of schools.
