In 2014 the world’s most widely ratified human rights treaty, one specifically for children, reached the milestone of its twenty-fifth anniversary. The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child was adopted after the fall of the Berlin Wall, and in the time since then it has entered a new century, reshaping laws, policies, institutions and practices across the globe, along with fundamental conceptions of who children are, their rights and entitlements, and society’s duties and obligations to them. Yet despite its rapid entry into force worldwide, there are concerns that the Convention remains a high-level paper treaty without the traction on the ground needed to address ever-continuing violations of children’s rights. This book, based on papers from the conference ‘25 Years CRC’ held by the Department of Child Law at Leiden University, draws together a rich collection of research and insight by academics, practitioners, NGOs and other specialists to reflect on the lessons of the past 25 years, take stock of how international rights find their way into children’s lives at the local level, and explore the frontiers of children’s rights for the 25 years ahead.

In the modern era, where technology and globalization shape our lives, child safety goes beyond traditional physical dangers. We now face intangible threats that permeate globalized communication platforms, threatening not only the bodies, but also the minds and souls of our children. It is imperative that we be alert to these camouflaged dangers that surround our little ones. Our children are not only subject to falls and scratches; they are exposed to malicious predators who aim to distort their perceptions of the world and cause emotional and psychological harm. In the naivety of youth, they do not have the mechanisms to protect themselves from unscrupulous adults who exploit their innocence. As guardians of our children, it is our responsibility to know the threats brought by modernity and combat their harmful effects. Every effective strategy begins with clarified and updated knowledge. We must be well informed about the tactics and methods used by predators to better protect our little ones. Ignoring the latent and silent danger that threatens the integrity of our children is not an option. We need to become increasingly specialized to understand how these evil agents operate and how we can protect our children from their harm. Parents, educators, caregivers and everyone who cares about children's well-being must prioritize actions that close all the loopholes through which evildoers try to infiltrate. It is our duty to ensure that our children grow up in a safe environment, protected from negative influences that could compromise their healthy and happy development. This is a commitment that cannot be underestimated, as the future of our treasures is at stake.
