A/HRC/19/64 Child protection from discrimination Participants renew their commitment to ensure the realization of the rights of all children without discrimination of any kind. Participants commit to giving special attention to the realization of the rights of girls, including to achieve their right to education and to eliminate child marriage and other harmful traditional practices. Participants urge OIC Member States to take legislative, administrative and social measures to support without discrimination the rights of children born out of wedlock. These measures should include facilities for ensuring that both parents support the child and the mother benefits from relevant financial support to ensure the upbringing of the child. Children‘s inheritance rights should also be safeguarded. Measures should also be taken to establish the legal responsibility of the father to contribute financially in the upbringing of the child and to allow the mother to take the necessary legal actions to establish through courts the fatherhood of the biological child. Participants recognized that children with disabilities have a right to special attention and empowerment. The entry into force of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities provides an opportunity for renewed commitment to the realization of the rights of children with disabilities and for joint action between the two treaty bodies established by these treaties. Participants also recognized the particular vulnerability of children deprived of parental care, belonging to minorities, living and working on the streets and children victims of economic exploitation and reiterated their commitment to enhance their protection. Child protection from all forms of violence Participants valued the presence and contribution of the newly appointed Special Representative of the SG on Violence against Children, Dr. Marta Santos Pais, and expressed their commitment to develop productive cooperation with the Special Representative and to provide her with necessary technical and financial support. In light of the child‘s equal right to respect his or her human dignity and physical integrity, participants to the Conference recommend to the OIC member States to take all appropriate legislative, social and other measures for an effective follow-up to the recommendations made in the UN Study on Violence Against Children. Participants call upon the OIC Member States to urgently review and reform their legislation to ensure the prohibition of all forms of violence against children and to link law reform with promotion of positive, non-violent forms of discipline. Building upon the promising experiences of OIC Member States, particular attention should be given to the prevention and combat against harmful practices, including FGM, child marriage, crimes committed in the name of honour, the use of children as camel jockeys, child trafficking, child domestic service and other forms of child labour. Building upon positive national experiences from OIC Member States, participants to the Conference recommend that each State establish a high level focal point to coordinate all actions to prevent and combat all forms of violence against children, and promote the development of a well-resourced national strategy on violence against children, engaging with civil society, including children and young people. Participants requested: 1. That efforts should be exerted to provide protection for children under occupation, and in times of war. They demanded that those who violate the CRC by killing children or subjecting them to imprisonment, corporal and/or psychological torture, should be made accountable and brought to court. 44
