Published purpose

This three-year project by Child Rights Connect (CRCnct) aims to enhance the empowerment, enjoyment of rights and protection for child human rights defenders (CHRDs) worldwide. The project takes a dual approach focussed on improving safe and sustainable promotion and defence of human rights by empowered CHRDs, particularly girl CHRDs and other groups of CHRDs most deprived of their rights, while also increasing effective recognition of CHRDs by duty-bearers and responsibility-holders, both contributing to a more enabling environment for CHRDs.
