SRSG on violence against children: Annual report 2014, para. 64
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- In the framework of her cooperation with the Council of Europe, in March 2014, the Special Representative participated in the High Level Conference held in Dubrovnik (Croatia), which reviewed progress in the implementation of the Council's Strategy for the Rights of the Child 2012-2015. The elimination of violence against children is one of its core objectives. Framed by the sound normative work of the Council, including on the protection of children against sexual exploitation and sexual abuse, on cybercrime and on gender and domestic violence, the meeting promoted the further implementation of the vast array of policy guidelines, training programmes and awareness campaigns for violence prevention and response. As a follow-up, enhanced efforts will be made to support positive parenting, child participation and empowerment in the digital world, and child-friendly justice, social services and health care. Moreover, the Council was invited to address the vulnerability of children impacted by the economic crisis in Europe; and the role of education, media and advertising in preserving children's human dignity, and combating gender stereotypes and sexual violence.
