Ending Child Soldiers in Africa Act requires a report on child soldiering's impact on U.S. national security.

The Ending Child Soldiers in Africa Act mandates the Secretary of Defense to submit a report on the effects of child soldiering in Africa on U.S. national security interests. The report must assess connections between child soldiering and violent extremism, terrorism, transnational criminal organizations, forced population displacement, regional instability, and threats to critical minerals and strategic supply chains. It also evaluates current U.S. and allied efforts to prevent child soldier recruitment and support demobilization and reintegration.
