“Justice for children is one of the Egyptian State's priorities, as part of its commitment to international charters and conventions, including the implementation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and the goal 16 of Sustainable Development Goals on peace, justice, and strong institutions.”

“It also focuses on promoting the use of alternative measures to detention, diversion and restorative justice and the social/education reintegration programs for children who are held in care institutions.”

“The project aims to enhance the living conditions of children and adolescents in conflict with the law through the application of the UN Child Rights Convention and the Egyptian Child Law.”

“My ministry strives to apply the project titled "Restorative approach to juvenile justice: socio-educative model of reintegration and alternative measures to detention", which is funded by the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation.”

“Vulnerable children and children in conflict with the law are watched through community monitoring offices spreading across the country.”
