Guidelines Promoting the Human Rights and the Best Interests of the Child in Transnational Child

The Guidelines address the situations of children on the move who are at risk of abuse, exploitation and trafficking at any stage in their migration. They are directed at national child protection systems and asylum reception systems as main institutional entry points for promoting the human rights and the best interests of children on the move. Case management and care planning for children on the move are central to the Guidelines. They discuss step-by-step the transnational cooperation from the initial identification of the child and relevant assessments through to the identification and implementation of a durable solution, including the possibility of return.
