Children’s rights and equality in the newspapers May 2009 About the Children’s Rights Alliance for England The Children’s Rights Alliance for England seeks the full implementation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child in England. Our vision is of a society where the human rights of all children are recognised and realised. The Children’s Rights Alliance for England protects the human rights of children by lobbying government and others who hold power, by bringing or supporting test cases and by using national, regional and international human rights mechanisms. We provide free legal information and advice, raise awareness of children’s human rights, and undertake research about children’s access to their rights. We mobilise others, including children and young people, to take action to promote and protect children’s human rights. Each year, we publish a review of the state of children’s rights in England.
