Child Rights

Fundamental Child Rights

A universal framework ensuring every child's right to protection, survival, development, and participation.

Child rights are specialized human rights designed to ensure that all children grow up in a safe, nurturing, and empowering environment.

These rights protect children from abuse, neglect, and exploitation while ensuring their access to education, healthcare, and a voice in matters affecting them.

At KOSHISH, we view child rights not as optional charity, but as legal entitlements. We empower communities to understand and claim these rights, and we hold institutions accountable for protecting them.

Key provisions

  • Right to Survival (healthcare, nutrition, shelter)
  • Right to Protection (from abuse, neglect, and exploitation)
  • Right to Development (education, play, and care)
  • Right to Participation (having a voice in decisions)
