Children's rights are a specific manifestation of human rights, which recognizes the special needs and vulnerability of minors. These rights are enshrined in the Convention on the Rights of the Child, adopted by the United Nations in 1989, which establishes a legal and moral framework for the protection and well-being of all children. The Convention emphasizes that every child has the right to survival, development, protection from abuse and exploitation, and to participate fully in family, cultural and social life.
Children, due to their age and development, require special protection to ensure their growth in a safe and healthy environment. The rights of children include the right to education, health care, adequate nutrition, and an environment that allows them to develop physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially. Furthermore, children must be protected against violence, exploitation, child labor and any form of discrimination.
At IHRCG, we are committed to ensuring that all children, regardless of their background or situation, can fully enjoy their fundamental rights. We work tirelessly to protect minors from all forms of abuse and exploitation, promoting their well-being and comprehensive development. Our work includes the defense of their rights through awareness campaigns, the promotion of inclusive and quality education, and support for children in situations of risk or vulnerability. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to grow up in an environment that respects and values their rights, allowing them to reach their full potential and contribute positively to society.
