"This very welcome handbook provides practical advice on NGOs' involvement in ensuring that States work urgently to fulfil their obligations to respect children's right to protection from all forms of violence." Professor Paulo Sérgio Pinheiro, Independent Expert on the UN Study on Violence against Children, 2003-07
The UN Secretary-General's Study on Violence against Children revealed appalling levels of violence against children. NGOs have a key role in working on follow-up to the Study to ensure that violence against children is challenged wherever and whenever it occurs.
Challenging Violence against Children offers practical support and advice on, for example:
- strengthening commitments and action to protect children at local, national and international levels
- ways to promote non-violent values
- how to involve children in research and advocacy.
Checklists and recommendations are included for ending violence in different settings - the home and family, schools, and care and justice systems.
