Eradicating violence against Children

In spite of a high level of social awareness in Europe, millions of children are still subjected to violence. The Council of Europe promotes and secures children's human rights through developing standards and policies, monitoring countries' compliance with norms, and launching awareness-raising actions. It also assists countries to develop comprehensive strategies addressing all forms of violence against children. This book references the Council of Europe's work in this field and provides insights into the processes that have led to its many conventions, recommendations, decisions, programs, reports and publications.--Publisher's description.
