HAQ: Centre for Child Rights
India
| Human Rights
Centre for Child Rights works towards the recognition, promotion and protection of rights of all children. It aims to look at the child in an integrated manner within the framework of the Constitution of India, and the UN Convention of the Rights of the Child, and contribute to the building of an environment where every child’s rights are recognised and promoted without discrimination. HAQ believes that the State is the primary duty bearer for the realisation of human rights of all children. Therefore, children's rights must become an integral component of good governance. Under its children and governance programme we monitor the executive, the legislature and the judiciary through budget for children analysis; examining their status through regular reports; analysis of questions and debates in parliament; and engaging with the justice delivery mechanisms.
