We heard you! Protecting children from violence
On 23 April 2024, the European Commission announced important recommendations to support EU countries ensure that children are safe and their rights are protected.
Over 1,000 children's views were collected through our Platform, and together with adult's input are reflected in the recommendations.
These recommendations are to help all the people who take care of children work better together on child safety.
