NGO Report on the Implementation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child in Australia

Published in May 2005.

This non-government report to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child responds to the Australian Government’s Combined Second and Third Reports and makes recommendations to further Australia’s compliance with the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

This report was prepared by the National Children’s and Youth Law Centre and Defence for Children International (Australia) following consultations with a wide range of people working with children and young people in Australia across many sectors as well as some participation and input from children and young people themselves.

The report is available for download below.
