Paragraph text
Standard-setting instruments such as the Guidelines on Justice in Matters involving Child Victims and Witnesses of Crime of 2005 and the Guidelines for the Alternative Care of Children of 2009 also stipulate that recovery and reintegration are essential forms of assistance to be provided to child victims. The Secretary-General's Study on Violence against Children (2006) also recommended providing recovery and social reintegration services. The Special Rapporteur on trafficking in persons, especially women and children, in the draft basic principles on the right to an effective remedy for victims of trafficking in persons (A/HRC/26/18, annex) and in her recommendations has underlined the obligation of States to provide rehabilitation and recovery, with special consideration being given to child victims of trafficking.
