GLOSSARY
Injurious information
CRC Article = 17(e)
Note:
For the implementation of the right of the child to have access to appropriate information, States Parties are required to encourage the development of guidelines in order to protect children from information and material injurious to their well-being. Such guidelines should take into account the right of the child to freedom of expression (see Article 13 of the CRC), which includes the right to freedom of information, and that parents, and not the State, have the primary responsibility for the development of children (see Article 18(1) of the CRC).
