1⃣ The EU Strategy on the Rights of the Child
We propose action in six areas, including the right of children to be free from violence and to be safe online.
The aim is also to enable the participation of children in civic and democratic life.

Children's rights are universal and we reinforce our commitment to protect, promote and fulfil these rights in the EU and globally.
We propose concrete actions to promote equal opportunities for children at risk of poverty or social exclusion.

Human rights and democracy are facing serious threats. In many places COVID-19 has accelerated the erosion of the democratic fabric.
The EU is ready to do its part to defend democracy and human rights in rebuilding the post-pandemic world.
