Non-governmental organisations’ report on the application of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child Helsinki Foundation For Human Rights

The report notes that many of the recommendations issued by the Committee on the Rights of the Child in 2002 have not been implemented yet. Moreover, it emphasizes the lack of some important elements which are crucial for pursuing an effective policy for children, such as: a mechanism to coordinate actions for children, systematic monitoring of the implementation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, a separate budget for children, and an efficient, coherent and comprehensive system for collecting data on all aspects of children’s lives.
