Projects for a child friendly justice

juvenile

Tdh facilitates the access of children and young people to child-friendly justice and promotes the use of restorative justice in cases involving child victims and offenders. Our projects improve knowledge amongst national actors who work with child-victims and offenders on child-friendly restorative justice. We train and educate professionals working with/for children and empower children themselves by teaching them their rights and by supporting them to advocate for their own better protection in the justice system.
