For Children

There have been many initiatives from different quarters like the civil society, national governments and international organizations towards recognizing the rights of children. Much of these initiatives are also being related to the struggle of different sections of people for defending particular aspects of human rights within their own context.

The UN Convention on children's rights adopted by the general assembly of United Nations in November 1989 is both a culmination of numerous efforts in the past and a new beginning of the era of children's rights. This section provides information about the rights of children, violations and possible remedies.
