On 26 March, FRA will give a keynote speech at the closing conference of Child Front. This is an EU-funded project on ‘Transformative Judicial Training for Child-Inclusive Justice Systems’.
In the panel on innovative approaches to child-friendly justice, FRA will contribute online to the discussion on interdisciplinary insights into how to best ensure child-friendly proceedings.
Building on its evidence, FRA will stress particularly important procedural safeguards for inclusive systems such as children’s right to information and to be heard, access to legal representation and individual needs assessments.
