As part of the “Knowing for Helping” project, Belarus developed a system for monitoring the implementation of the rights of children with disabilities living in residential homes.
The monitoring system makes it possible to understand how children’s rights are implemented in their daily lives. It aims to improve the implementation of children’s rights and to increase the opportunities for children with disabilities to enjoy the rights guaranteed by the Convention on the Rights of the Child and the Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities.
The monitoring system is based on the right to a family, the right to protection from violence and exploitation, the right to education, the right to health, the right to privacy and respect for differences, and the principle of equality of all children.
The implementation of the system of monitoring the rights of children with disabilities living in residential institutions will contribute to the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals 3, Good Health; 4, Quality Education; and 10, Reducing Inequality.
More information about the project can be found on the official website of the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Belarus.
