In Bangladesh, the history of children's rights has evolved with the ratification of international conventions such as the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1990. Over the years, the government has taken steps to address child labor, improve access to education, and enhance healthcare services to safeguard and promote the rights of children in the country.
Absolutely, on November 20, 1989, the United Nations General Assembly's unanimous adoption of the International Convention on the Rights of the Child marked a significant milestone in recognizing and safeguarding the rights of children worldwide.
Poverty stands as a central factor contributing to the violation of children's rights, manifesting in issues like child labor, discrimination, abuse, and sexual exploitation. The pervasive impact of poverty often forces children into hazardous work conditions, subjects them to discriminatory practices, and leaves them vulnerable to various forms of exploitation.
