The
Egyptian National Children Rights Observatory, which represents the
first similar experience in Egypt, aims at producing and managing
evidence and data on children conditions for policy making towards the
promotion and protection of children rights.
The
National Observatory, has three main Units and functions.
First
of all, the Research Unit will produce
thorough analysis and statistics on the well-being of Egyptian children,
the most pertinent issues that affects their lives and the effective
application of the national regulations. The Policy and Planning Unit
will then utilize this evidence for results-based and child-rights
centered policies to enhance the application of the current national law
(n.196/2008) and the United Nation Convention on Children rights.
Once created and shared these data with different institutions,
the Monitoring and Evaluation Unit, through an interdepartmental
mechanism of coordination, will monitor the implementation of relative
national policies, evaluate their impact and recommend possible
integration or improvement.
Promising
results have been so far achieved by this
initiative, especially in
terms of promoting a wide
dissemination of
a culture focused on children rights.
