Despite the almost global ratification of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, Ireland and the international community fall short on the full realisation of these standards. Among the many pervasive and enduring failures are the persistence of child poverty, inadequate access to healthcare services, inequality of access to education, and continued discrimination based on race, ethnicity, gender, and disability. A highly relevant concern in today's world is the increasing exposure of children to armed conflict and our inability to effect change. This paper reviews the progress made in upholding children's rights and areas of ongoing concern.
尽管《联合国儿童权利公约》几乎得到全球批准,但爱尔兰和国际社会在全面落实这些标准方面仍有欠缺。在诸多普遍且长期存在的不足中,儿童贫困问题持续存在、获得医疗服务的机会不足、受教育机会不平等,以及基于种族、族裔、性别和残疾的持续歧视。当今世界一个高度相关的问题是儿童越来越多地暴露于武装冲突之中,而我们无力实现改变。本文回顾了在维护儿童权利方面取得的进展以及持续令人关切的领域。
