A. Memorandum on stopping the killing of children in Ukraine by applying the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (Signing Event 14.04.22)
"We, the undersigned, call on the Member States of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child to act radically and develop a system capable of defending children in Ukraine and in other democratic out-of-block states that have not joined NATO and the EU".
B. The impact of COVID-19 on children: rights and responsibilities (Conference, 26.01.22)
The aim of the conference is to aid in the protection of the development of children against the harm caused by pandemics. During the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, several countries have not evaluated the effect of the decisions made on children, therefore ignoring a major principle of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child - the prioritisation of the interests of the child over those of other groups in society.
