Child's Right to Protection

A child's right to protection means that every child has the right to be safe from harm, exploitation, abuse, and neglect. It requires adults and authorities to create safe environments where children can grow, learn, and play without fear. This includes safeguarding children from physical and emotional threats, ensuring their privacy and well-being, and providing support if they are mistreated. Protecting children also involves recognizing their vulnerability and taking proactive steps to prevent harm, respecting their dignity, and listening to their voices. Ultimately, it’s about ensuring children’s safety so they can develop into healthy, confident individuals.
