All children should be able to obtain legal rights, foremost through birth registration, and have equal access to health, education and other social services. Children should also be protected from child abuse and exploitation that threatens their health and dignity, child labor and child right violation such as domestic and international trafficking.
We will work to enable all children in the world to enjoy their rights. We will first support children to be able to assert their rights by themselves, and help parents and their neighbors to work together to protect their children. In addition, we will make efforts for child protection systems and policies to be made from the community to the national level.
