<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nThe United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) <\/a> is a legally-binding international agreement setting out the civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of every child, regardless of their race, religion or abilities.<\/p>\n The Convention consists of 54 articles <\/a> that set out children\u2019s rights and how governments should work together to make them available to all children.<\/p>\n Under the terms of the convention, governments are required to meet children\u2019s basic needs and help them reach their full potential. Central to this is the acknowledgment that every child has basic fundamental rights. These include the right to:<\/p>\n Life, survival and development<\/p>\n Protection from violence, abuse or neglect<\/p>\n An education that enables children to fulfil their potential<\/p>\n Be raised by, or have a relationship with, their parents<\/p>\n Express their opinions and be listened to.<\/p>\n In 2000, two optional protocols were added to the UNCRC. One asks governments to ensure children under the age of 18 are not forcibly recruited into their armed forces. The second calls on states to prohibit child prostitution, child pornography and the sale of children into slavery. These have now been ratified by more than 120 states.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n Fourth Paris Peace Forum ends with a series of initiatives<\/a><\/p>\n Iran: Educational program for parents was held by the First National Campaign to Prevent Child Abuse in IRAN<\/a><\/p>\n Bangladesh: Rohingya children get access to education<\/a><\/p>\n PAYNCoP Gabon Partners with the National Youth Council to Stop Violence against Youth<\/a><\/p>\n The Global Campaign for the Prevention of Child Marriage<\/a><\/p>\n Iran: 3000 signature campaign for child abuse prevention<\/a><\/p>\n The carnage against Gaza civilian protesters<\/a><\/p>\n Amnesty International: Israeli forces must end the use of excessive force in response to \u201cGreat March of Return\u201d protests<\/a> <\/p>\n Israel\/OPT: Palestinian child activist Ahed Tamimi sentenced to 8 months in prison<\/a><\/p>\n Cuba a \u2018Champion\u2019 of Children\u2019s Rights: UNICEF<\/a><\/p>\n Nobel Laureate leads historic march across India to keep children safe<\/a><\/p>\n \u2013 \u2013 \u2013 \u2013 Links for the following articles published prior to 2015 do not work because they were made by a version of PERL programming that is no longer supported.
