A/HRC/14/35
The practices set out in this report provide a number of promising examples of
sanctions for juvenile offenders that do not involve detention. Responses also
highlighted the importance of the adoption of a comprehensive approach to juvenile
justice at the national level, an approach urged by the Committee on the Rights of the
Child in its general comment No. 10 on children’s rights in juvenile justice (2007).
Finally, the report underlines the importance of a well-funded and functioning legal
aid system (including for children) and of ongoing training on human rights
protection for those actively involved in the administration of justice.
