Destination Unknown, a network of organisations and young people united to protect children on the move has developed a new guide on child rights and the global compacts. The network is led by Terre des Hommes and Kopin is a Steering Group member and the Euro-Med regional coordinator.
The guide analyses the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly & Regular Migration and the Global Compact on Refugees through a child rights lens and outlines the measures foreseen in these documents for the protection of the rights of the child.
It outlines what in the Global Compacts is of relevance for children and the provisions for the implementation, monitoring and review of these frameworks. It also suggests ways of engaging with the implementation of the Global Compacts.
Destination Unknown is committed to working in partnership and developed this guide to support people, organisations and agencies working to protect children on the move to make better use of the Global Compacts in their daily work, to the benefit of refugee and migrant children.
