Childrens Rights and Business Principles summary

This document briefly summarizes the 10 Children’s Rights and Business Principles. The principles identify a range of actions that all businesses should take to respect children’s rights, to prevent and address any adverse impact on children’s rights, and to support and advance children’s rights.

The Children’s Rights and Business Principles were developed in consultation with business experts, child rights experts, civil society, governments and children. Save the Children, UNICEF and the United Nations Global Compact hope they will serve as an inspiration and guidepost for all businesses, everywhere, in their interactions with children.
