Report of Network for Children’s Rights (NCR) titled “The Children that don’t go on holiday”
The nonprofit organization Network for Children’s Rights (NCR) presents the Report titled “The Children that don’t go on holiday”, which analyzes the conditions that the refugee children are dealing with in Greece and, in particular, the vulnerable social category of unaccompanied minors seeking international protection.
The report, which consists of six sections, is based on the collection of observations and information from NCR’s day-to-day presence in the field, and it presents issues that arise in relation to child protection and the implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. The majority of the issues the unaccompanied minors face is related to the sectors of health and social welfare, family situation, education, and legal representation. Furthermore, issues arise regarding the discrimination and the unequal treatment during their access to the public and administrative authorities.
