A Guide – Children and the Global Compacts on Refugees and Migration
April 22nd, 2021
Destination Unknown, a network of organisations and young people united to protect children on the move, led by Terre des Hommes, has developed a new guide on child rights and the global compacts.
A guide - childen and the global compacts on refugees & migration
What’s in the compacts and how to engage with them
The guide analyses the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and 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 is in the Global Compacts that 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.
