Children Deprived of Liberty: Learning from the UN Global Study4
Deadline Date – 31-Dec-2019
Children deprived of liberty are an often invisible and forgotten group who
suffer from clear violations of human rights. Frequently placed in inhuman
conditions and in adult facilities, they are at heightened risk of violence,
rape and sexual assault, as well as torture and cruel, inhuman or degrading
treatment or punishment. Not only does such deprivation of liberty damage
their physical and psychological development, it also destroys their
capacities and opportunities to conduct healthy lives and constructively
contribute to society.
