United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child

The United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child is a team of experts that oversees how countries follow the international treaty called the Convention on the Rights of the Child. This treaty sets out the rights children should have, like access to education, protection from harm, and basic healthcare. The Committee reviews reports from countries on their progress and offers guidance to ensure children's rights are respected and protected globally. Its goal is to promote the well-being of children everywhere and hold governments accountable for upholding these rights.
