Annual Review 2000-2001

Published: 2001 Innocenti Publications
The 1989 United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child guides every aspect of the work of the Centre and of UNICEF (the United Nations Children’s Fund) as a whole. The Centre has been the research engine for UNICEF’s shift to a rights-based approach over the last decade, measuring the reality for children against the standards required by the Convention. In 2000, as in previous years, the Centre worked in partnership with UNICEF offices and National Committees, with Governments, non-governmental organizations, universities, researchers and others to share expertise, ideas and experience. And, as always, it maintained its intellectual independence to focus on cutting-edge, action-oriented research.

Since its establishment in 1988, the UNICEF Innocenti Research Centre has been a catalyst for the development of UNICEF’s leadership role for children in many key areas. Work carried out at the Centre in Florence, drawing on the resources and experience of a large network of experts and UNICEF field offices, has helped to shape the human rights agenda for children. It has also contributed to the intellectual foundation of UNICEF’s advocacy for shifts in economic and social policies in favour of the poorest children and families worldwide.

La participación de niños y adolescentes en el contesto de la Convención Sobre los Derechos del Niño: visiones y perspectivas. Actas del Seminario, Bogotà 7-8 de deciembre 1998

Published: 1999 Innocenti Publications
La participación infantil constituye un elemento de gran relevancia en la Convención sobre los Derechos del Niño y su consideración es de primordial importancia para asegurar la implementación de todas las disposiciones del tratado. La participación infantil sirve además como enfoque de base para el desarrollo de estrategias y programas en beneficio de los niños. Al mismo tiempo, constituye tal vez el más innovador de los principios básicos de la Convención y seguramente el que ha suscitado más controversias. Existe actualmente una tendencia generalizada de las "organizaciones para el desarrollo", sin excluir la misma UNICEF, a hacer demasiado hincapié en los "programas" formales que promueven la participación, incluidos los eventos organizados a nivel nacional y destinados a llamar la atención de la opinión pública. Lamentablemente, estos eventos son casi siempre diseñados, en buena parte, fuera del mundo real de los "beneficiarios" para quienes se llevan a cabo, es decir los niños mismos. Una estrategia que consista esencialmente en multiplicar las experiencias reales de la participación "de todos los días" de los niños tiene buenas probabilidades de traer consigo un modo diferente de enfocar la promoción de los derechos del niño en cuanto se refiere a los padres, maestros y otros adultos clave en la vida cotidiana de los niños.
