SRSG on violence against children: Annual report 2014, para. 61
- Paragraph text
- These important provisions have been further complemented by significant international standards on human rights in the administration of justice. Moreover, the Economic and Social Council adopted basic principles on the use of restorative justice, encouraging the development of mediation, conciliation, conferencing and sentencing circles as effective alternatives to formal criminal justice mechanisms. Through its general comments, the Committee on the Rights of the Child has also promoted restorative justice programmes.

- Paragraph text
- 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.

- Paragraph text
- Ensuring progress towards the Sustainable Development Goal targets related to combating violence, especially target 16.2, requires effective accountability and monitoring mechanisms at the national, regional and global levels. This is a priority concern for the Special Representative, who has promoted their consideration by the Human Rights Council, especially through its universal periodic review and special procedures; by treaty bodies' monitoring and reporting processes; and by the voluntary national reviews of the high-level political forum on sustainable development. To support the follow-up and review of the 2030 Agenda, she is also actively engaged in the development of global monitoring indicators and in the promotion of monitoring tools and methodologies.

- Even in countries where harmful practices persist behind deeply entrenched traditions, the legislative process has provided opportunities to involve community and religious leaders, parliamentarians, professional associations, academic institutions and grass-roots organizations, and engage 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.

- In its report, the High-level Panel of Eminent Persons on the Post-2015 Development Agenda pays significant attention to the right of freedom from fear and from violence, recognizing this as "the most fundamental human entitlement, and the essential foundation for building peaceful and prosperous societies." It stressed: "To fulfil our vision of promoting sustainable development, we must go beyond the [Millennium Development Goals]. They did not focus enough on reaching the very poorest and most excluded people. They were silent on the devastating effects of conflict and violence on development."

Paragraphe
SRSG on violence against children: Annual report 2012, para. 24
- Paragraph text
- A general legal prohibition of violence must be reinforced and complemented by detailed provisions in specific pieces of legislation, both to address distinct forms of violence, such as sexual abuse and exploitation, bullying, trafficking, corporal punishment or harmful traditional practices, and to tackle violence in different settings, including schools, care and justice institutions, the community and the home. It is critical to develop laws and regulations in all relevant fields to give full meaning to the prohibition, to establish procedures for reporting, referral and investigation, to secure the protection of victims and witnesses, impose effective sanctions to those found responsible, and to fight impunity. Both these approaches, comprehensive and specific, are therefore needed and in fact mutually reinforcing.

- The wide expression of support for the global campaign for the universal ratification of the Optional Protocols to the Convention on the Rights of the Child and the progress achieved are evidence of the value of this joint United Nations initiative. The year 2012 can become a milestone in the achievement of universal ratification and the Special Representative will continue to give priority attention to this goal. In view of the General Assembly's adoption of the Optional Protocol on a communications procedure, efforts will also be directed towards its swift signature and entry into force.

- Paragraph text
- Other countries have introduced new offences specific to cyberbullying to address its distinct aspects, such as the disclosure of intimate photographs without consent, indirect harassment and malicious impersonation online. For example, in July 2015, New Zealand adopted the Harmful Digital Communications Act, which criminalizes sending messages and posting material online that deliberately cause serious emotional distress or incitement to commit suicide. The new legislation is designed to deter and prevent harmful communications, reduce their impact on victims and establish new systems for quickly resolving complaints and removing damaging online material. It provides a broad range of remedies that a district court can order, including taking down material; publishing a correction or an apology or giving the complainant a right of reply; or releasing the identity of the source of an anonymous communication.

- But beyond the cost to each individual victim, violence has serious costs for households, communities and national economies. As noted in a WHO study, meeting the direct costs of health, criminal justice, and social welfare responses to violence diverts many billions of dollars from more constructive societal spending. The much larger indirect costs of violence due to lost productivity and lost investment in education work together to slow economic development, increase socioeconomic inequality, and erode human and social capital. Investing in the prevention of violence is therefore of critical importance, not only as a question of human rights and good governance but also of good economics.

- As in conflict and post-conflict situations, disarmament and demobilization programmes can be used in communities affected by armed violence to reduce the number of guns in circulation. In such initiatives, guns are surrendered in return for collective or individual rewards, such as building materials, vouchers for groceries and support for development projects. Those efforts are particularly successful when there is a high degree of public awareness, transparency and community involvement.
