Caricom ministers commit to raft of child care steps
The special Caricom meeting on children concluded here yesterday with a commitment by leaders to invest in them as both a national and regional development priority but some of the youth participants believe that much more should have been done to incorporate them in the proceedings.
Aiming to ensure the right to survival, development, protection, dignity and participation of children within the region, ministers of the community with responsibility for children together with representatives of regional and international development organizations have affirmed commitment to the realization of the rights of all children enshrined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
