Convención Sobre los Derechos del Niño
Hace 25 años el mundo concibió un compromiso con todos sus niños, niñas y adolescentes: que los Estados, las comunidades y las familias haríamos

La Convención sobre los Derechos del Niño plasma un consenso entre los diferentes sistemas jurídicos y las diversas culturas en relación a los principios y criterios esenciales que deben regir en la protección de la niñez. Además, ofrece una visión del mundo en la cual todos los niños y todas las niñas viven y desarrollan su potencial pleno sin discriminación, y son protegidos, respetados y alentados a participar
en las decisiones que afectan sus vidas, buscando siempre respetar su interés superior.
