Today the European Commission launched the new comprehensive EU Strategy on the Rights of the Child and the European Child Guarantee which are major policy initiatives to better protect all children, to help them fulfil their rights and to place them right at the centre of EU policy making. Both initiatives have been informed by extensive consultations with citizens, stakeholders and, most importantly, more than 10,000 children.
The 6 pillars of the Child Rights Strategy:
✅Child participation
✅Children’s rights in digital
✅Combating violence against children
✅Child-friendly justice
✅Socio-economic inclusion
✅Children’s rights globally
