International Laws on Child Migration

International laws on child migration aim to protect the rights and well-being of children who migrate, whether voluntarily or forcibly. Key instruments include the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), which emphasizes the best interests of the child, their right to protection, and access to services. Additionally, the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration outlines commitments to ensure safe migration experiences for children. Countries are encouraged to provide non-discriminatory access to education, healthcare, and legal protection, recognizing that migrant children often face unique vulnerabilities and challenges.
