- Paragraph text
- Protection of children from violence within the justice system will be another topic of special concern. As highlighted at the twelfth United Nations Congress on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice, and confirmed by numerous initiatives promoted across regions, this is an area where significant steps are needed to narrow the gap between international human rights standards and the reality on the ground, and where there is great potential to capitalize on significant experiences in different parts of the world, including the development of child-friendly justice procedures and mechanisms, the promotion of child-sensitive materials, the establishment of independent monitoring mechanisms to uphold children's rights, and the consolidation of evidence to inform the development of laws, policies and programmes.

This situation raises families' anxiety and concerns, at times fuelling pressure to keep children, particularly girls, away from school and encouraging dropping out of school as a means of preventing further violence and harm.

- Schools are uniquely placed to break patterns of violence and provide skills to communicate, negotiate and support peaceful settlements of conflict. Education has a unique potential to generate a positive environment where attitudes condoning violence can be changed and non-violent behaviour can be learned. This is relevant for all ages, but particularly during early childhood. An environment free from violence in all its forms, including gender-based violence, is also instrumental in the promotion of the Millennium Development Goals, particularly in ensuring universal primary education to all children and eliminating gender disparity in education.

To prevent violence against them in their early years, investment in positive parenting, home visitation and early childhood care and development programmes will remain essential. To capitalize on young people's agency and potential, and prevent their stigmatization and manipulation in violent incidents and criminal activities it will be imperative to empower them with life skills and quality education, and to support their active contribution to a violence-free society.

As highlighted by the findings of the global survey, it is crucial to sustain the achievements made, scale up positive initiatives and widen the ownership of this process of social change. But very especially, it is essential to avoid any risk of stalling the momentum built up around the implementation of the Study or of allowing this agenda to become diluted in the face of competing priorities.

Thus, putting in place a comprehensive, well-coordinated and well-resourced national agenda on violence against children; introducing an explicit legal prohibition on all forms of violence in all settings, supported by child-sensitive counselling, reporting and complaint mechanisms; and consolidating violence-related data and research are urgent and indispensable components of the future agenda.

- Violence is a frequent dimension in children's lives. It occurs in various forms and contexts and has serious and long-lasting consequences on their well-being and development. Prevention and elimination efforts need to address these dynamics and invest in the social inclusion of girls and boys at special risk, for whom the multiple dimensions of deprivation go hand in hand with a cumulative exposure to violence. Enhancing families' capacity to protect and care for their children, and preventing child abandonment and placement in residential care remain crucial dimensions of this process.

- This initial report of the Special Representative reaffirms the human rights foundation of her mandate and the significant developments in public health and child protection which will support its implementation. The report sets out the strategic direction that the Special Representative proposes to pursue during her mandate. This approach was informed by a wide range of meetings and consultations with key stakeholders at the global, regional and national levels that the Special Representative has held over the months since she took up her position. These include Governments and intergovernmental organizations; United Nations partners, including the Special Representative on children and armed conflict; United Nations agencies, in particular the core members of the Inter-Agency Working Group on Violence against Children; human rights bodies and mechanisms; civil society organizations; and children and young people.

- Paragraph text
- The situation of these children remains surrounded by stigma. There is little information on those deprived of liberty and on the reasons behind their detention; independent monitoring mechanisms are seldom available to safeguard their protection and address their complaints. Sensationalistic information and ill perception of growing juvenile delinquency build social pressure to criminalize children and adolescents, and for the introduction of an increasingly lower minimum age of criminal responsibility and harsher measures of deprivation of liberty. As a result, a culture of tolerance to violence against children persists, and the fight against impunity for acts of violence against children is confronted with renewed challenges. These are critical concerns that the Special Representative will address in the context of her mandate, missions and supported regional initiatives.

Through her global advocacy, policy dialogue and field missions, the Special Representative will continue to support national implementation efforts, particularly those designed to put in place well-coordinated and resourced national agendas on violence against children; legislation prohibiting all forms of violence against children in all settings; and sound data and research on the forms, incidence and magnitude of violence.

Thus, putting in place a comprehensive, well-coordinated and well-resourced national agenda on violence against children; introducing an explicit legal prohibition of all forms of violence in all settings, supported by child-sensitive counselling, reporting and complaint mechanisms; and consolidating violence-related data and research are urgent and indispensable components of the future agenda.

To prevent violence against them in early years, investment in positive parenting, home visitation and early childhood care and development programmes remains essential. To capitalize on young people's agency and potential and prevent their stigmatization and manipulation in violent incidents and criminal activities, it will be imperative to empower them with life skills and quality education and support their active contribution to a violence-free society.

Owing to weak reporting and to fragmented and short-term interventions, it is seldom high on the policy agenda or a priority topic of public debate. As a result, many children continue to live with trauma and in fear, self-blame, isolation and helplessness.

- Paragraph text
- A justice system based on the respect of the rights of the child is critical when preventing and addressing incidents of violence against children. Child victims of violence, including as a result of trafficking and exploitation, are, however, still too often criminalized and deprived of the protection that they should enjoy as children. Marginalized children, including those living in poverty, migrants and asylum-seekers face risks of physical, psychological and sexual violence, are denied access to legal assistance, or placed in detention instead of benefiting from adequate care arrangements. Frequently considered the first option rather than a measure of last resort, the deprivation of liberty remains a reality for thousands of children. Violence, including torture and humiliating treatment, is used as a form of control, discipline and punishment; in some countries, sentencing can include caning, flogging, stoning or amputation, as well as capital punishment and life imprisonment.

As highlighted by the findings of the global survey, it is crucial to sustain achievements made, to scale up positive initiatives and to widen the ownership of this process of social change. In particular, it is essential to avoid any risk of stalling the momentum built up around the implementation of the Study or of allowing this agenda to become diluted in the face of competing priorities.

The worst is that countless children are exposed to violence that is often concealed but nevertheless pervasive. Children are intentionally targeted in politically driven processes, manipulated in organized crime, obliged to flee violence in their communities, sold and exploited for economic gain, groomed online, disciplined through violent means, sexually assaulted in the privacy of their homes, neglected in institutions, abused in detention centres, bullied in schools, and stigmatized and ill-treated as a result of superstition or harmful practices. Every five minutes, a child dies as a result of violence.

Time and time again, the Special Representative has met children who have emerged from the most terrible nightmares and who yet remain resilient, confident, generous and eager to show the way ahead. In all regions of the world, young advocates join hands with national authorities, civil society and many other allies in raising awareness about the detrimental impact of violence, empowering young people to be the first line of protection from abuse and exploitation, and inspiring many others to build a world where children can grow up respected, nurtured and supported to achieve their ambitions and dreams. Even in the most desperate of situations, children demonstrate hope for a better world and determination to achieve lasting change. This is much more than positive thinking; this is about achieving positive change.

It is anchored in the inalienable rights of the child and promotes the accountability and reintegration of children who have committed an offence through a non-adversarial and voluntary process, based on dialogue and problem solving.

- Violence compromises all children's rights. It goes hand in hand with deprivation and high risks of poor health, poor school performance and long-term welfare dependency. In early childhood, the impact of violence is often irreversible. As children grow, cumulative exposure to manifestations of violence becomes a bleak continuum, spreading across children's life cycle and, at times, persisting across generations.

- Paragraph text
- Across regions, violence against children is generating growing concern and attention, in many cases supported by a wide process of social mobilization in which children themselves are playing an indispensable role. At the same time, however, violence continues to affect the life of millions of children. Hidden and socially accepted, and still too often perceived as a necessary form of discipline, violence remains surrounded by passivity and indifference, and is associated with weak reporting, and fragmented and short-term interventions. As a result, it is seldom considered beyond the periphery of the policy agenda. In this ambivalent context, children find themselves overwhelmed by fear, trauma, isolation and helplessness.

Recognizing that no violence is justifiable and all violence can be effectively prevented, the Special Representative is strongly committed to maintaining momentum around violence prevention and responses; increasing visibility and renewed concern at the harmful effects of violence on children; addressing social norms to encourage a process of positive behaviour and social change; and mobilizing political support to combat this phenomenon and achieve steady progress.

It is also the year during which the General Assembly will review the Special Representative's mandate and re-energize efforts to build a world free from violence. Pressed by the urgency of this cause and by the unique potential offered by this auspicious year, the Special Representative will place particular attention on the areas set out below.

- Violence does not take place in a vacuum. Important factors, such as poverty, environmental degradation and organized crime, addressed in section IV above, aggravate the risk of child neglect, maltreatment and abuse. Conversely, the protection of children from violence contributes to social progress and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals. As the international community considers the global development agenda for beyond 2015, it is critical to address violence as a priority and a cross-cutting concern, recognizing the centrality of the human dignity of the child, securing the protection of the most disadvantaged and safeguarding children's right to freedom from violence.

- Violence is a frequent dimension of children's lives. It occurs in various forms and contexts and has serious and long-lasting consequences on their well-being and development. Prevention and elimination efforts need to address those dynamics and invest in the social inclusion of girls and boys at special risk, for whom the multiple dimensions of deprivation go hand in hand with a cumulative exposure to violence. Enhancing families' capacity to protect and care for their children and preventing child abandonment and placement in residential care remain crucial dimensions of that process.

- Violence against children is seldom reported, and official statistics remain limited in their ability to capture the true scale and extent of this phenomenon. As a result, available information is scarce and reflects only the tip of the iceberg. This is an area where urgent action is required and one to which the Special Representative will continue to devote priority attention. With that in mind, in 2012 she will join the Government of Sweden in the organization of an expert consultation on this issue.

The Special Representative participated in important discussions on the implementation of the UNICEF strategy and its focus on the protection of children from violence, at headquarters and in the Middle East and North Africa and in the Latin America and Caribbean regions. She has made significant inroads into collaborating with UNICEF on child protection, having initiated discussions with the child protection unit in UNICEF and the Special Representative for children and armed conflict to enhance synergies and promote complementary work in areas falling within her mandate.

- The legal prohibition of violence against children is important, as it conveys a clear message of political commitment to prevention work and the use of non-violent alternatives for conflict resolution. It constitutes a vital safeguard for child victims and witnesses, being a strong reference for capacity-building initiatives and the development of guidance and codes of conduct for professionals working with and for children. Law reform gains renewed value when used in support of public information and awareness-raising activities, and for promoting positive discipline, social mobilization and behaviour change. When harmful practices persist behind deeply entrenched traditions, legal reform has been particularly useful when promoted with the involvement of community and religious leaders, parliamentarians, professional associations, academic institutions and grass-roots organizations, and with the engagement of communities concerned. Bridging international standards, policy action and local values, and motivating change from within, legislation has been supported as the fruit of true conviction, gaining traction as a genuine deterrent with preventive effect.

- The 12 overarching recommendations of the study provide a navigation chart for accelerating and monitoring progress in violence prevention and responses, in all settings where children may be at risk. In view of the particular urgency, the study identified time-bound targets for three strategic overarching recommendations. These areas remain critical and require renewed and firm attention at all levels. For this reason, in the broad framework of the study's recommendations, the Special Representative will give priority attention to initiatives aimed at: - The development in each State of a national comprehensive strategy to prevent and respond to all forms of violence, mainstreamed in the national planning process, coordinated by a high-level focal point with leading responsibilities in this area, supported by adequate human and financial resources to support implementation and effectively evaluated - The introduction of an explicit national legal ban on all forms of violence against children, in all settings - The promotion of a national system of data collection, analysis and dissemination, and a research agenda on violence against children

The campaign was launched on 25 May 2010 in New York, with the Secretary-General, and is promoted in close cooperation with UNICEF, OHCHR, the Committee on the Rights of the Child and the Special Rapporteur on the sale of children, child prostitution and child pornography. The goal of universal ratification has been widely endorsed by high-level international conferences, including the Third World Congress against Sexual Exploitation of Children and Adolescents (Rio de Janeiro, 2008), and is supported by international human rights bodies and a wide network of civil society organizations.

This collaboration has been crucial to raise awareness of and broaden global support for children's protection from violence, to promote the mainstreaming of this issue in United Nations activities, and also to generate policy debate through the organization of strategic panel discussions with key partners on areas of critical concern. The side events held by the Special Representative during the sixty-fifth session of the General Assembly illustrate this well, including those on the consolidation of data and research on violence against children and on the impact of violence in early childhood.

The forthcoming 2010 UNICEF report on parental child disciplinary practices in a range of low- and middle-income countries confirms the high prevalence of violent disciplinary methods, but also recognizes that this practice coexists with non-violent discipline; close to 9 in 10 children experience physical punishment and psychological aggression, with higher rates among boys, among children between 5 and 9 years of age and in households where mothers condone corporal punishment and domestic violence; conversely, violent discipline was less prevalent when caregivers were engaged in greater levels of educational and play activities with their children.

The Council adopted a resolution in which it strongly condemned all forms of sexual violence and abuse against children; and urged States to develop and establish child-sensitive counselling, complaint and reporting mechanisms that are confidential and safe. The Council also invited the Special Representative and the Special Rapporteur on the sale of children, child prostitution and child pornography to submit a joint report on this topic to the Council at its sixteenth session.

The Conference provided a high-level forum for the Special Representative's advocacy in favour of the universal ratification of the Optional Protocols to the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and of the protection of children from violence and abuse. Those dimensions were also given strong attention in the Road map.

- The protection of children from violence is a key dimension of the UNICEF mandate. In this context, firm collaboration has been pursued with the Fund at Headquarters and across regions to advance the follow-up to the United Nations study recommendations and to mainstream the protection of children from violence in national policy agendas. A critical aspect of this process is the follow-up to the Third World Congress against Sexual Exploitation of Children and Adolescents. In this connection, the Special Representative took part in the review meeting of the Organizing Committee, held in Bangkok in October 2010. The meeting, organized with the participation of UNICEF, the Governments of Brazil and Thailand, ECPAT International, other civil society organizations and young representatives from the Mekong region, highlighted the urgency of accelerating progress in the implementation of the Rio de Janeiro Call for Action, and achieving the time-bound targets agreed upon by the Congress, in the overall framework of the study follow-up and the Special Representative's mandate.

The Guidelines establish important standards to inform counselling, reporting and complaint mechanisms for incidents of violence. They provide a key reference for the Council's Campaign to Stop Sexual Violence of Children, launched with the Special Representative in late November 2010. The aim of the campaign is to raise awareness and offer knowledge and advice to families and children on the prevention and reporting of incidents of sexual violence against children.

- The meetings held in 2009 with the African Union Commissioner for Social Affairs and the Chairperson of the African Committee of Experts on the Rights and Welfare of the Child opened avenues for sound institutional collaboration, including mapping positive initiatives across the region, supporting legislative reforms and consolidating national information and data systems on violence against children. This collaborative framework was further strengthened in 2010 by the thematic debate on violence against children, held by the African Committee with the association of the Special Representative. At the meeting, an agreement was reached on a strategic follow-up through enhanced advocacy to protect children from violence and promote positive alternatives to violent discipline; support for legislative and policy reforms to ban all forms of violence; the development of an African report on this issue; and the inclusion of the protection of children from all forms of violence in the agenda of a future summit of African Heads of State and Government.

- The adoption of legislation to prohibit all forms of violence against children, in all settings, together with an appropriate legal framework for preventing and responding to violence, was a critical recommendation of the study and constitutes a priority of the Special Representative's mandate. To advance progress in this crucial area, the Special Representative organized, together with OHCHR, the Inter-Parliamentary Union and the international non-governmental organization Advisory Council for the follow-up to the study on violence against children, an expert consultation on law reform held in Geneva in July 2011. The main findings of the consultation are presented below.

- Second, in countries where legislation has been enacted, further measures are required to narrow the gap between law and practice. The concluding observations of the Committee on the Rights of the Child on the implementation of the Optional Protocol on the sale of children, child prostitution and child pornography indicate that, in more than half of the countries reviewed, the legislation on child prostitution needs to be amended, including to ensure the protection of boys. The concluding observations on the implementation of the Convention indicate that, in at least one third of countries, legislative provisions on other forms of sexual violence are inadequate, as they fail to criminalize rape or to provide an adequate definition of sexual abuse. Similarly, research conducted by the Child Rights Information Network indicates that in at least 40 countries, children are at risk of being sentenced to violent forms of punishment, including whipping, flogging, caning or amputation, and that in a number of countries the law still allows children to be sentenced to death.

- Education has a unique potential to create a positive environment in which attitudes condoning violence can be changed and non-violent behaviour can be learned. Schools are well placed to break patterns of violence and to provide skills that enable people to communicate, negotiate and support peaceful solutions to conflicts. This is possible at all stages of life, especially early childhood, when initiatives can decisively improve the development of talents and abilities, reduce marginalization and associated risks of violence, and promote access to school and educational achievement. An environment free of violence in all its forms is also instrumental to promoting the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals, in particular to ensure universal primary education for all and to eliminate gender disparities in education.

The success of such initiatives has been closely associated with the engagement of teachers, staff and students, as well as parents and other members of the community.

- The Day of the African Child was a strategic opportunity to join with the African Committee of Experts in calling for the establishment of widely publicized, accessible, safe and child-sensitive counselling, reporting and complaint mechanisms; national investment in well-resourced child protection systems, including legislation banning all forms of violence against children; and the abolishment of status offences, including the decriminalization of survival behaviour such as begging, truancy and vagrancy. These solutions need to be promoted among street children themselves, with an understanding of their perspectives, thus investing in their genuine empowerment and enabling them to make informed choices in situations where the risk of violence may be effectively prevented.

- The year 2011 has been marked by enhanced collaboration with the African Union Department of Social Affairs and the African Committee of Experts on the Rights and Welfare of the Child, building upon the framework of cooperation developed with those institutions. The Special Representative partnered with the African Union initiative to promote the universal ratification of the Optional Protocols to the Convention on the Rights of the Child and other child rights treaties. With the African Committee of Experts, important strides were made in strengthening the protection of children from violence, not least through the Burkina Faso technical consultation on legislative reform in Africa to prohibit violence against children, including corporal punishment.

In order to advance that process and institutionalize key alliances, the Special Representative participated in strategic, high-level regional meetings. She supported significant advocacy and policy initiatives and strengthened partnerships with regional institutions and organizations and with regional mechanisms established to support the follow-up to the study. This is an area where significant progress has been achieved.

- The American survey addressed a wide range of situations where children are exposed to violence, from physical assault, sexual victimization and child maltreatment, to witnessing violence in the family and in the community, and enduring bullying, Internet victimization and dating violence It also considered the cumulative effects of children's exposure over time to various forms of violence, as well as across different age groups. With this far-reaching scope and the promotion of a comprehensive approach beyond individual types of violence, and across disciplines and services, the survey findings are expected to better equip actors to prevent violence, and help child victims overcome the impact of this phenomenon.

- This whole-school ethos was evident in the experiences shared at the Oslo meeting, including those designed to prevent bullying in schools. The success of these initiatives has been closely associated with the engagement of teachers, staff and students, as well as parents and members of the community. The reduction of incidents of bullying has equally been dependent on a strategic combination of factors, namely: - Sincere commitment to address this phenomenon, with the formal adoption and wide dissemination of anti-bullying rules, and their launch though an official school event; - The creation of a governance system in which all stakeholders participate; - The development of a monitoring system, through which incidents and issues of concern are periodically reviewed; and - The dissemination of anti-bullying messages in the community at large. The lessons learned from anti-bullying programmes provide a crucial reference to address other forms of violence in schools.

- [At the consultation, in which governmental experts and representatives of United Nations agencies, international and regional organizations, human rights bodies, academia and civil society participated, a set of practical recommendations to assist States and other actors in the development of a violence-free justice system for children was drawn up. Those recommendations, included in a joint report to the Human Rights Council (A/HRC/21/25), address the following issues:] Ensuring the use of diversion and alternative non-custodial measures. Effective alternative mechanisms to formal criminal proceedings and to deprivation of liberty should be developed and used, including restorative justice, mediation, probation, community service and community-based programmes, including treatment for children with substance abuse problems.

- Sound research and reliable, objective and disaggregated child-related data are indispensable to understand the environment within which children grow and develop, to assess the risk or impact of violence on their development and to prevent its occurrence. This is an area where there are many gaps. Although there is recognition of the need to build upon a broad definition of violence, including its various manifestations, physical, psychological and sexual, there is no standard categorization of its different forms. Owing to the absence of internationally agreed methodologies for data collection, different standards and practices have been followed, including for ensuring the protection of respondents and interviewers and follow-up support to victims.

Still too often, existing data are not analysed or made public and fail to inform advocacy, policymaking and the allocation of resources, or to promote changes in attitude and behaviour for the prevention and elimination of violence. It is critical to invest in communication and better presentation of evidence in order to assist decision makers; to promote evidence-based programmes adapted to local contexts; and to widen the ownership of implementation efforts by the public at large.

- The Special Representative's collaboration with faith-based organizations to strengthen the protection of children from violence gained further impetus. In the context of the World Day of Prayer and Action for Children, initiated by a global movement of religious leaders and communities of all faiths and secular organizations committed to children's rights, significant initiatives were supported on the anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child to promote the ending of violence against children. Partner organizations Religions for Peace and the Centre for Interfaith Action launched an important initiative entitled "Ten promises to our children", which constitutes a valuable platform for harnessing the potential of religious communities to mobilize action to combat violence against children and to ensure that children grow up in a safe and protective environment. Similarly, the Fourth Forum of the Global Network of Religions for Children, held in June 2012 in Dar es Salaam, United Republic of Tanzania, in which the Special Representative participated, adopted an important declaration of commitment to action against all forms of violence against children and harmful practices.

- Economically advanced nations are also implementing severe cutbacks in social spending and promoting budgetary austerity measures to reduce national debt and strengthen their economies. In some cases, cuts in child benefits in the area of education have hampered families' ability to buy schoolbooks and cover the cost of their children's meals and transportation, while child labour in the informal sector and agriculture may be on the rise as a result of shrinking family income. As highlighted by the Commissioner for Human Rights of the Council of Europe, increasingly difficult socioeconomic situations for families and high levels of stress and pressure can result in serious risks of domestic violence towards children and needs to be carefully monitored.

- Children with disabilities are also at heightened risk of abuse, neglect, stigma and exploitation; in their lives, disability, poverty, poor health care and nutrition and social exclusion often go hand in hand. The incidence of disability is higher amongst children belonging to poorer households, where they lack access to basic social services of quality, thus compromising opportunities for early detection, treatment and recovery and for meaningful participation in social life. As families of children with disabilities face extra medical, housing and transport costs, they miss employment opportunities and face marginalization and aggravated vulnerability to violence. When placed in institutions, where they have limited ability to disclose situations of abuse and seek redress, children's vulnerability to violence is further exacerbated.

- Child-sensitive counselling, reporting and complaint mechanisms constitute another area lacking investment. Although some respondents mention the availability of helplines and police services, in most cases child-focused mechanisms either are not in place or are ill-resourced, lacking human and financial capacity to address children's concerns; in the majority of cases, national independent institutions are not available. Reporting on incidents of violence frequently remains a challenge, with very few States having issued guidance for professionals working for and with children, and only 25 per cent having clear provisions on mandatory reporting. The guiding principles and recommendations presented by the Special Representative in a previous report on this matter (A/HRC/16/56) remain fully relevant.

- In this connection, CARICOM established a task force for child protection and child rights to accelerate progress in children's protection from violence. The Task Force, composed of the CARICOM secretariat, UNICEF and civil society partners, as well as the Special Representative, adopted a plan of action for 2013-2014 aimed at the protection of children against violence, abuse, exploitation, child labour, discrimination and neglect in CARICOM members and associated members. The plan of action mainstreams the implementation of the study recommendations and the road map on violence against children, adopted by the 2012 regional consultation. Strategic goals include the ratification of the three Optional Protocols to the Convention on the Rights of the Child; the adoption of an explicit legal prohibition of all forms of violence against children; the promotion of a comprehensive plan to prevent and eliminate all forms of violence; the consolidation of national data and research; and the establishment of a specialized juvenile justice system to strengthen children's protection from violence and ensure their reintegration in society.

- A real difference in implementation will depend on how well children understand and make effective use of the provisions of these treaties. For this reason, the Special Representative launched in the fall of 2013 two child-friendly publications on these two Optional Protocols. These user-friendly publications were developed in collaboration with partners, including children and young people, from different regions who reviewed and refined the text, advised on the design and helped shape these important advocacy tools. It is expected that the publications will help to widely disseminate the Optional Protocols, raise children's awareness about their rights, help to prevent their exposure to sexual violence and abuse, and give children confidence to speak up and seek support to prevent violations and enjoy effective protection. Collaboration with Member States and other partners will remain crucial to support the translation of these child-friendly materials into national languages and promote their consideration in the framework of the school system.

These easily accessible publications were developed with the involvement of children from different regions, who reviewed and refined the text and layout of the publications. Already translated into 10 national languages, these advocacy tools will help to raise children's awareness about their rights, support the prevention of their exposure to violence and abuse, and give victims confidence to speak up and seek support. Collaboration with Member States and other partners will remain crucial to further consolidate this process and promote the consideration of these child-friendly materials in the education system.

With the impetus provided by the United Nations campaign for the universal ratification of the Optional Protocols to the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and the special attention given to the rights of the child by the 2013 United Nations Treaty Event, there has been an ever-growing ratification and implementation of standards in this area: the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the sale of children, child prostitution and child pornography has moved steadily closer to universal ratification, being in force in 167 countries; and the third Optional Protocol on a communications procedure, adopted in December 2011, entered into force in April 2014 allowing children to seek remedies and bring complaints before the Committee on the Rights of the Child on alleged violations of children's rights.

- Paragraph text
- As the current economic downturn confirms, in times of economic crisis the impact of these multiple factors increases. Although initially buffered from the financial crisis, low income nations soon felt its impact, with a slowdown in international trade, severely stretched Government budgets and uncertainty concerning foreign aid. According to some studies, additional numbers of people trapped in poverty in 2009 ranged from 50 to 90 million. Vulnerable children are particularly affected, it being estimated that in sub-Saharan Africa as many as 50,000 infant deaths in 2009 were linked to the global financial crisis. For households, insecurity in employment and pressure on resources, including as a result of increases in food and fuel prices, have enhanced the vulnerability of families with a growing risk of tension and violence.

- Paragraph text
- Differently from previous generations, today's children tend to shift easily between "real" and "virtual" worlds and regard the online/offline distinction as ever less relevant. At the same time, ICTs are contributing to the deconstruction of traditional boundaries of privacy, creating situations in which children engage in "chat" or "conversation" in apparently private settings while in fact potentially exposing themselves to a wide and unknown audience. Sharing personal information, and failing to identify online dangers or warning signals that can serve to protect children in the physical world - including physical and behavioural cues, and the appraisal of friends, parents or caregivers which are largely absent online - may lead to multiple risks to children's protection. The consequences of online and offline abuse can be devastating and they are also similar. In both cases they lead to depression, fear, eating and sleeping disorders, aggression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and a sense of shame and guilt.

In line with the study issued by the Special Representative entitled "Releasing children's potential and minimizing risks: ICTs, the Internet and violence against children", they recognized the need to ensure balance in promoting children's access to, and use of, information and communications technologies while guaranteeing their online safety and protection. They committed to building a broad alliance and promoting a dedicated multi-stakeholder platform for the implementation of a safe, inclusive and empowering digital agenda for children.

- Paragraph text
- The process is exacerbated by weak rule of law, poor law enforcement, corruption and a generalized fear of retaliation, resulting in crimes going unreported, low numbers of convictions and a profound sense of impunity. That pattern is particularly serious when children and adolescents are subject to State violence, carried out by law enforcement agents or by private security guards acting with the consent or tolerance of government entities. Enforced disappearances, extrajudicial executions, torture or arbitrary detention make it particularly hard for those children to access effective child protection mechanisms, seek redress and combat impunity. That only deepens the fear that prevents many victims from reporting violence and increases their lack of confidence in the justice system.

- In order to capture the wealth of children's opinions, the Special Representative undertook, in close cooperation with civil society partners, a review of a wide range of reports and contributions to the post-2015 agenda debate, including many national consultations held around the world. The review informed the Special Representative's report "Why children's protection from violence must be at the heart of the post-2015 development agenda: A review of consultations with children on the post-2015 development agenda".The report shows that children are eager to have a voice on the post-2015 development agenda. The message from the more than eight hundred thousand children involved in the numerous consultations is clear and unambiguous: "violence is a major obstacle to child development and it urgently needs to be brought to an end!"

Legislation is, however, insufficient to change superstition and deeply rooted beliefs. To ensure the protection of these children, the Special Representative has called for a comprehensive strategy highlighting, the following measures:] Ensuring a universal vital registration system. The universal and mandatory registration of births is indispensable to plan for the basic social services children are entitled to, and provide the special assistance victims of social exclusion particularly need; it helps to secure children's protection; and is crucial to break the invisibility of the violence that these children endure.

- Over recent years the protection of children from violence has evolved from a largely hidden and neglected topic into a growing global concern. Framed by international human rights standards, including the Convention on the Rights of the Child and its Protocols, and guided by the United Nations study on violence against children, there has been a growing understanding of children's exposure to violence, strengthened commitments to secure their safety and protection, and significant national implementation efforts to mobilize support for prevention and response and to help change attitudes and behaviour which condone violence against children.

- The challenge of creating a safe, inclusive and empowering online environment for children lies in responses that strike the appropriate balance between ensuring that children benefit from the potential offered by ICTs, and securing their rights, including the right to freedom from violence. It is crucial to ensure an optimal balance between children's curiosity, creativity, sense of innovation and freedom to learn, and their effective protection from harm. It is essential to enhance children's confidence, resilience and empowerment to cope with potential risks. International human rights standards provide a sound framework to guide effective action in that field.

- Capitalizing on implementation of the recommendations of the United Nations Study on Violence Against Children, the children's digital agenda should be integrated as a core component of any national comprehensive policy framework to prevent and address all forms of violence against children. The agenda needs to be well-coordinated, adequately funded and include clear time-bound goals and a transparent process to monitor and evaluate progress. The agenda should be promoted with the involvement of all stakeholders, and informed by the views and experiences of children and young people online, including those exposed to abuse. In a number of countries, such as Costa Rica (see box below), child safety online has become a priority in the policy agenda.

- The Convention on the Rights of the Child and its Optional Protocols, notably the Protocol on the Sale of Children, Child Prostitution and Child Pornography provide important guidance for the realization of children's rights online. All measures, including legislative, policy and educational initiatives, should be guided by the best interests of the child; respect and support children's growing autonomy and agency, and protect children from violence and discrimination. These principles lay the foundation to capitalize on the potential of the online environment; to promote children's learning and freedom of expression; to support children in accessing, receiving and imparting information; and to protect them from harmful materials and information, from unlawful interference with their privacy or correspondence, and situations where their honour and reputation may be at risk.

- Certain groups disproportionally exposed to the risk of cyberbullying, for example children with disabilities or special educational needs, are significantly more likely to be bullied than others. Young people with disabilities have indicated that they can be actively discouraged from using the Internet because adults are afraid that they may be bullied or because of concerns about Internet safety. However, those who have participated in consultations on cyberbullying have highlighted the many positive aspects of using the Internet. ICTs and the Internet can help children overcome many of the challenges they may face, including by decreasing social isolation through online participation and the use of social networks. Some children with disabilities expressed the view that using the Internet was liberating and empowering, as it provided a means of dealing with some of their struggles. The Internet allowed them to connect with other people with similar experiences; get support for problems such as bullying from message boards, forums and videos; and build social connections, particularly when they were experiencing social difficulties or isolation.

- Online violence is often associated with incidents of abuse generated elsewhere, but the screen does more than reflect the multiple faces of violence that children are exposed to at school, in the community or in the family. ICTs become the entry point to an endless maze of mirrors that multiply its impact, where identifying and protecting victims, investigating criminal activities and dealing with illegal and harmful content become increasingly challenging. Without proper coordination, efforts invested in addressing the various manifestations of online abuse will not match the pace of its proliferation or of continuous and rapid technological evolution.

- The family home is most often a place of safety, protection and learning, but it can also be a place where violence is witnessed, endured and reproduced. Raising children in nurturing and non-violent environments, where human rights are respected, helps to prevent armed violence in the community. The support of the State for parents in their child-rearing responsibilities is vital, both through social policies and universal access to basic social services of quality, and through positive parenting initiatives and guidance to caregivers to enhance their skills in child development, non-violent discipline, promotion of gender equality and non-violent masculine identities. That is particularly needed when families fear for the safety of their children, or require support, healing and closed-door mediation to overcome the distress associated with community violence.

- Girls are often exposed to violence and discrimination owing to their gender, young age and powerlessness. They endure the detrimental impact of physical, mental and sexual violence in the home, at school, in the community, in institutional care and in justice institutions. Child trafficking is a crime that is on the rise and the majority of victims are girls. Despite the criminalization of female genital mutilation/cutting in many parts of the world, every year 3 million girls are at risk of enduring that practice and around 14 million girls are forcibly married, often with much older men, and exposed to high risks of sexual abuse and other forms of violence.

- Developed by the Southern African Development Community Parliamentary Forum, the Model Law has the potential to inform action to end child marriage. This is an area where incremental progress is being achieved, for example with recent legislative developments in the Gambia and the United Republic of Tanzania. In 2015, Malawi adopted the Marriage, Divorce and Family Relations Act, which raised the minimum age of marriage to 18 years. The social mobilization around that process and the important partnership developed with traditional leaders helped to raise awareness of the new law and achieve important results, including a landmark initiative led by a female traditional chief that resulted in the initial annulment of 330 child marriages in a single district and since then has broken up 850 child marriages and banned the sexual initiation of girls.

An open dialogue between parents and children, including parents taking time to surf the Internet with their children, guiding and reassuring them and discussing online practices which may present risks, is critical. This dialogue should address the diverse aspects of online behaviour, including sites visited, protection of privacy, and the safe exchange of information and images.

- Secondly, international standards require the best interests of the child to be a primary consideration in all decisions affecting the child and at all times: upon arrival in a destination country, during relevant proceedings, or when the possibility of return is envisaged. It is crucial to ensure safe, dignified and child-sensitive age-assessment procedures, and in any case of doubt to provide the special protection every child is entitled to. The same principles should apply when the child's legal status is being established or when a request for family reunification is considered. The appointment of a legal guardian is essential to provide support and to defend the child's best interests at every point.

- The experience gained from the first set of voluntary national review reports for the high-level political forum will provide strategic input to future reporting, follow-up and review of the implementation of the 2030 Agenda. It is essential that future voluntary national reviews recognize that sustainable development cannot be achieved while globally, one billion children suffer violence and its devastating consequences. To achieve target 16.2 and free all children from fear, it is crucial to be able to assess progress and identify challenges. The Special Representative is determined to support these reviews and build upon the important experience gained from national human rights monitoring and reporting processes.

- For children on the move, as for any other child who is left behind, we need to transform the continuum of violence that shapes their life into a continuum of protection of their fundamental rights. The world must address these desperate situations urgently. Children's freedom from violence is an ethical and a legal imperative and should not be met with indifference or complacency. It is crucial to strengthen and effectively resource child protection institutions to which children on the move can be referred, and to implement the existing standards and develop adequate monitoring tools to safeguard children's care and safety, to promote durable solutions, to rapidly identify and address risks and to fight impunity.

- The 2017 high-level political forum will provide an important platform to assess progress in the protection of children from violence under the theme "Eradicating poverty and promoting prosperity in a changing world". The in-depth reviews at the high-level political forum of the Sustainable Development Goals on ending poverty, ensuring healthy lives and achieving gender equality will provide a critical reflection of how far States have come in ensuring a protective environment to offset the multiple, and often interconnected, vulnerabilities faced by children. For target 16.2 and the other violence-related targets, the 2017 voluntary national reviews are an important opportunity to highlight good practices, identify challenges and lessons learned, and renew commitments and the provision of reliable resources towards ending all forms of violence against children.

The Special Representative serves on the board and the executive committee of the Global Partnership, and through her global advocacy role promotes the shared mission of making the world a safe place for children and ending violence against children everywhere. The Global Partnership has the potential to harness collective efforts to promote steadily growing commitment and action for a world free from violence. It seeks to enhance political will to reach the Sustainable Development Goal targets on ending violence against children, accelerate action through the implementation of key interventions and strengthen collaboration among a wide range of stakeholders.

For this reason, law reform initiatives should include a clear plan of implementation, with an estimation of costs and an anticipated allocation of resources to meet them.

Legislation remains a challenge, with less than half of the Governments indicating the enactment of a legal ban on harmful practices, which may fully or only partially cover female genital mutilation/cutting, child or forced marriage, witchcraft rituals, honour killings and other practices.

The parties involved, including child offenders, recognize that they have a greater opportunity to be heard, to enhance understanding of the various positions and to participate in the outcome of the process, while having a greater sense of control over this process. This is an important factor for the effective implementation of restorative justice programmes and helps to make the system more responsive to the rights of all those involved.

There is also a rise in cases of children lured with money or gifts by preying offenders who entice children to share photos of themselves.

This includes thousands of children involved in these consultations who have steadily conveyed a clear message: violence is a major obstacle to child development and well-being and it needs to be brought to an end.

- Children growing up in poverty are less likely to access basic social services of quality or benefit from effective preventive initiatives or protection mechanisms. This is a particularly acute problem for children living or working on the street, who often struggle to survive in unhealthy and violent public spaces where crime is rampant and protection hardly available and who are at risk of enduring ill-treatment by the authorities or being criminalized for survival behaviours, including truancy and begging.

The visit to Maldives in June 2013 provided a strategic occasion to advocate for the swift completion of legislative reforms under way so as to bring national legislation in conformity with international child rights treaties, especially in the area of juvenile justice, and for the introduction of a comprehensive legal prohibition of violence as a form of sentencing, as well as violence within the home, and in care and justice institutions.

- Significant legal reforms have been introduced in recent years in different regions to prohibit violence against children. At present, some 25 countries have enacted laws to prohibit all forms of violence in all settings, and more than 20 others are working towards the same end. Several States have reinforced their legislation to address specific forms of violence, including violence in schools, trafficking and sexual exploitation, and harmful practices such as female genital mutilation and early and forced marriage.

- Younger children may lack the capacity to identify risks. Other vulnerable children, including those out of school, who come from a low socioeconomic background or belong to a minority, and children with disabilities, may be less likely to enjoy the benefits offered by the online environment or to receive information regarding safe Internet use. They may also be more likely to be bullied, harassed or exploited online. Without decisive action, the digital divide threatens to reinforce or exacerbate existing patterns of disadvantage.

- Age has a significant influence on how children operate online. Children are beginning to interact with ICTs and use the Internet at an increasingly young age. The relative simplicity of mobile devices, such as touchscreen tablets and smartphones, is making digital entertainment and Internet content available and easily used by children, including in their very early years. At the same time, younger children may be particularly vulnerable as they lack appropriate technical expertise or ability to identify risks.

- Widely perceived as a social taboo or a needed form of discipline, violence against children is seldom reported; official statistics remain limited in their ability to capture the true scale and extent of this phenomenon across nations and social groups. As a result, available information is scarce and inconsistent and only reflects the tip of the iceberg.

In its most recent global report, ILO recognizes that 115 million children are victims of hazardous work; and the sale and sexual exploitation of children also figure prominently among the worst forms of child labour.

- The protection of children from violence calls for urgent action. Violence is a harsh reality for millions of children around the world; it remains largely invisible and socially accepted, and it has serious, lifelong emotional and health impacts on children's lives; it undermines child development and learning abilities, inhibits positive relationships, provokes trauma and depression and leads to risk-taking and aggressive behaviour.

Surveys conducted in a number of countries have confirmed this pattern and, in some cases, have assisted in the reporting of emerging forms of violence, including a new form of sexual abuse in schools, referred to as "sex for grades".
