- In September 2009, the Special Representative participated in the twentieth Pan-American Congress on Children and Adolescents organized by the Organization of American States and the Inter-American Children's Institute and hosted in Lima by the Government of Peru. With high-level participants from the Organization's member States, as well as from national independent institutions for children's rights, non-governmental organizations and academics from the Americas, the Congress was held in commemoration of the twentieth anniversary of the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child and of the eighth anniversary of the Inter-American Children's Institute. Great attention was devoted to investment in public policies for the realization of children's rights, including the protection of children from violence. Violence against children was centre stage in the official sessions and the formal dialogue between ministers and high authorities, and the Special Representative and the Rapporteur on the Rights of the Child of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, Professor Paulo Sergio Pinheiro.
