Approach, vision and work methods 2014, para. 30
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- The Special Rapporteur is aware of the challenge of explaining to interested stakeholders, such as victims and children's organizations and institutions, the terms and scope of her mandate and its specificities vis-à-vis other mechanisms that address children's issues. Consequently, the Special Rapporteur will step up efforts to improve understanding of her mandate in order to avoid confusion and obtain relevant information on allegations of violations and human rights concerns regarding legislation, policies and practices that fall within the scope of her mandate. This will enable her to react to allegations by means of communications to the Governments and other stakeholders concerned. In addition, the Special Rapporteur intends to develop substantive criteria that will govern the taking of action on a case or situation, in accordance with the strategic implementation of the mandate entrusted to her and provided that the admissibility criteria laid out in the code of conduct and the manual of operations are met. The purpose is to maximize the potential of communications as a prevention and protection tool of the special procedures system.
