Ukrainian, EU and third country diplomatic and political efforts to stop the deportations and repatriate children were looked at, along with initiatives by the civil society. The workshop examined the investigations and cases brought before national and international jurisdictions against state actors and individual perpetrators. Challenges on political, legal and practical fronts were scrutinised, leading to recommendations for what the EU could do to help bring the children back. One of the experts shed light on the situation of civilians in the occupied Ukrainian territories more generally. This report brings together the background briefings prepared for the workshop and a summary of the debate with Members, academics, experts from the civil society and EU representatives. date: 2024 date_type: published publisher: European Parliament official_url: https://doi.org/10.2861/383001 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green commissioning_body: European Parliament verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2116957 doi: 10.2861/383001 isbn_13: 978-92-848-1500-5 confidential: false lyricists_name: Ioffe, Yulia lyricists_id: YIOFF49 actors_name: Ioffe, Yulia actors_id: YIOFF49 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public place_of_pub: Brussels, Belgium pages: 77 citation: Umland, Andreas; Ioffe, Yulia; (2024) Forcible transfer and deportation of Ukrainian children: Responses and accountability measures.
