March 1, 2020 | Children ‘born of war’ are increasingly recognized as a particular victim group in relevant international policy frameworks. Previous scholarship has primarily documented the challenges faced by their mothers as caregivers and as victims of wartime sexual violence, while a discussion on fathers to children ‘born of war’ is notably absent. Based on research in northern Uganda between 2016 and 2019, this article explores how some fathers seek to maintain a relationship with children born as the result of ‘forced marriage’ and assume partial or full responsibility for their well-being and care.
