In 2001, the UN General Assembly requested the Secretary-General conduct an in-depth study on violence against children. The study was intended to lead to new strategies to prevent and combat all forms of violence against children,
outlining steps to be taken at various levels.
Save the Children identified the study as an opportunity to challenge and change attitudes, and actively contributed to its implementation. Our aim has been to influence and contribute to the study, to help form the foundation of a new international strategy with clear recommendations on how to end violence against children. Beyond its contributions to the study, Save the Children continues to strengthen its own work on violence against children and to ensure that governments, the United Nations and other agencies implement concrete actions that will eventually end violence against children.
Our support and contributions are guided by rights-based principles that promote participation from children and adults, accountability, gender equality and non-discrimination. Save the Children encouraged and facilitated the participation of children and young people in the study’s processes and helped to create opportunities for sharing views and ideas on issues that affect them. Save the Children contributed significantly in the thematic areas of children in conflict with the law, physical punishment and sexual abuse.
