Summary report of the Special Representative’s engagement with children around what needs to be done to end Violence Against Children

Between July and October 2024, the Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Violence Against Children consulted with approximately 1700 children from over 110 countries, to identify what children expect their governments to do in the next six years to end all forms of violence against children.

Following an online poll, the Special Representative hosted three online interactive dialogues with children from different backgrounds and contexts, including children from vulnerable situations, such as children with disabilities, indigenous children, and children in the streets.
