Commission concerned about children without parental care
The Human Rights Commission of Sri Lanka has observed that children
face challenges globally and specially to mark the International
Children's Day in 2009 the Commission mainly focuses on youth offenders
and children without parental care in the country.
Culmination of agencies of socialization process such as family,
education, community and mass media are paramount concerns of bringing
up a child towards social friendly and well-protected childhood.
The ultimate results of these processes would end up with discipline,
leadership qualities and to develop a better human rights culture in the
country.
Therefore, the Human Rights Commission of Sri Lanka emphasizes that
the State and the society are the key actors to prevent juvenile
delinquencies and further to ensure the best interest of the child for a
better tomorrow.
