"Child Rights Importance"

Every child deserves a chance at happiness. But many children–burdened with disease, disabilities or disorders – face daily obstacles that may seem insurmountable. At Charity for Children, we are local people helping local children, right here in the greater Central New York area.

Childhood can and must be preserved. Children have the right to survive, develop, be protected and participate in decisions that impact their lives.... The Charter of Child Rights is built on the principle that "ALL children are born with fundamental freedoms and ALL human beings have some inherent rights".

Why are child rights important?

Children are innocent, trusting and full of hope. Their childhood should be joyful and loving. Their lives should mature gradually, as they gain new experiences. But for many children, the reality of childhood is altogether different.

Right through history, children have been abused and exploited. They suffer from hunger and homelessness, work in harmful conditions, high infant mortality, deficient health care and limited opportunities for basic education, A child need not live such a life. Childhood can and must be preserved. Children have the right to survive, develop, be protected and participate in decisions that impact their lives.

CRY UK focuses on the 4 basic rights of children. These were defined in 1989, by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, an international human rights treaty to which 191 countries, including India, are signatories. The Charter of Child Rights is built on the principle that "ALL children are born with fundamental freedoms and ALL human beings have some inherent rights".
