6^th edition: Children, minorities and identity:

Understanding articles 8 and 30 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child 

June 24 – 30, 2017

 Since 2012, The International Summer Course on the Rights of the Child has been held yearly, with a focus on a different article of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). The Course is intended for anyone who has an interest in the rights of children, and for professionals of all disciplines who work with children. It is a great opportunity to strengthen national capacities to advocate for children’s rights through institutional stakeholders such as Child and Youth Advocates, Children’s Commissioners, Ombudsman, bar associations and professional bodies in health, education, child protection and other fields. Thanks to a multidisciplinary format, this course facilitates networking during a variety of events, from workshops to cultural events.
