Our Right to be Protected from Violence

To disseminate the Study findings among adolescents and young people, two publications were prepared and distributed together: The United Nations Secretary-General’s Study on Violence Against Children: Adapted for Children and Young People and Our Right to be Protected.

The United Nations Secretary-General’s Study on Violence Against Children: Adapted for Children and Young People gives background information on the Study and on issues of violence against children. It also provides a glossary on the terminology utilized in the Study official report. This version can be utilized to extensively disseminate the Study. Our Right to Be Protected from Violence provides suggestions of activities for youth leaders and peer educators working with groups of young people aged 12–18 interested in discussing the problem of violence against children and the need to take action to stop it.
