Advocacy Strategies Training Manual: Children’s Rights in Juvenile Justice

Summary

This Advocacy Strategies Training Manual aims to provide users with some practical tips for conducting advocacy for children’s rights in juvenile justice. The manual is not reinventing the wheel; rather, it adapts and makes best use of the good practices already developed for child rights advocacy and illustrates how they can be used to ensure follow-up to the Committee on the Rights of the Child’s General Comment No.10 on Children’s Rights in Juvenile Justice. While the manual has been designed for use in advocacy for juvenile justice, it also contains valuable advice for those conducting advocacy for other child rights issues. The strongest message of the manual is to plan and coordinate your strategy with other partners at the highest in-country level possible.
