Innocenti Working Papers Independent Human Rights Institutions for Children and the Committee on the Rights of the Child Reporting Process AUTHOR(S) Rébecca Steward Published: 2011 Innocenti Working Papers The Committee on the Rights of the Child has been one of the main instigators for the development of independent human rights institutions for the promotion and protection of children’s rights. Relying on article 4 of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, it adopted a general comment on this issue in 2002, and now consistently encourages State parties to establish or strengthen such institutions in its concluding observations. Efforts have been made recently with human rights treaty bodies to enhance the involvement of independent institutions at each stage of the reporting process. For independent institutions specifically in charge of monitoring children’s rights, this implies an important contribution to the work of the Committee. Their status of independence from their government in the reporting process has been emphasized and some institutions submit a separate report to the Committee. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 32 | Thematic area: Children's Participation, Convention on the Rights of the Child, Governance, Rights of the Child | Tags: children's councils, children's rights, convention on the rights of the child, evaluation, implementation of the crc, international instruments, monitoring, ombudsman for children × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION Rébecca Steward 2011 Independent Human Rights Institutions for Children and the Committee on the Rights of the Child Reporting Process. , pp. 32.
Innocenti Working Papers The Establishment Process for a Separate Child Ombudsman in Turkey: A case study AUTHOR(S) Vanessa Sedletzki Published: 2011 Innocenti Working Papers The paper provides an overview and analysis of the initial steps for the establishment process of a separate children’s ombudsman in Turkey. It examines the legal, political and social reasons why an ombudsman for children would be needed in the country. Specifically, it analyses Turkey’s legal framework and international obligations, concluding that lack of implementation of the law and monitoring of children’s rights are the main challenges. Children have disproportionately high rates of poverty, and are often victims of various forms of violence, in particular girls. The political structure of the country is affected by significant tensions, especially with regard to the place of religion in the public sphere. The paper analyses the possible reasons for the stalemate and looks at the text of the law from a child rights perspective. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 42 | Thematic area: Children's Participation, Convention on the Rights of the Child, Governance, Rights of the Child | Tags: children's councils, children's rights, convention on the rights of the child, evaluation, implementation of the crc, international instruments, monitoring, ombudsman for children × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION Vanessa Sedletzki 2011 The Establishment Process for a Separate Child Ombudsman in Turkey: A case study. , pp. 42.
