SRSG on violence against children: Annual report 2013, para. 34
Paragraph
Paragraph text
The protection of children from enforced disappearances is a concern that was raised by the Special Representative in her field visits. To prevent and address this serious form of violence, it is critical to promote child-sensitive truth-seeking and redress measures, as well as comprehensive psychological care and support for the long-lasting reintegration of child victims. Moreover, child-friendly procedures need to be in place to secure children's genuine participation in proceedings, to support the child with information that he or she can fully understand and to prevent the risk of revictimization.
Legal status
Non-negotiated soft law
Body
Special Representative of the Secretary-General on violence against children
