Governance fit for Children

This report is part of a project covering five European countries and the EU institutions. Save the Children has received financial support from the European Commission’s Fundamental Rights and Citizenship Programme to carry out the project Governance fit for Children to assess how far the general measures of implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) have been realised at European, national and community level.

The general measures of implementation in the Convention on the Rights of the Child (articles 4, 42 and 44.6) concern the structures and mechanisms which need to be in place if the whole of the UNCRC is to be implemented effectively.

The project focuses on the EU institutions and five European countries: Italy, Lithuania, Romania, Sweden and the United Kingdom. You can read more about the project here.
