A/HRC/19/64 actors, including civil society. The different institutions‘ mandates and the job descriptions of their staff should be linked; c. an independent human rights institution should be established in line with the Paris principlesrr to promote and protect the rights of the child (for example, an ombudsperson/commissioner specifically for the rights of the child, established through legislation, either independently or as a focal point within an existing human rights institution). This institution should be accorded such powers as are necessary to enable it to discharge its mandate effectively and independently, including the power to hear any person; obtain any information and/or document necessary for assessing situations falling within its competence; access facilities providing care for children at all times; propose initiatives and measures, including legislative measures; conduct awareness-raising campaigns; disseminate information on the rights of the child, to children in particular; and monitor governments‘ actions. The institution should be provided with an adequate infrastructure, funding (including specifically for the rights of the child, within broad-based institutions), staff and premises. It should be associated with the strategy‘s design, evaluation and follow-up; d. a body, such as an observatory on the rights of the child, a national statistical office or a research institute dealing with children should co-ordinate the collection, analysis management and dissemination of data on violence and promote research to inform the strategy‘s design and implementation; e. all institutions providing care and services for children should be accredited and registered with competent public authorities on the basis of relevant legislation and national minimum standards of care. Internal control and independent monitoring mechanisms should be put in place to ensure compliance with the standards; f. all institutions, services and facilities responsible for the care and protection of children should be encouraged to adopt codes of good conduct, incorporating the prohibition, prevention and rejection of all forms of violence against children, and be expected to adhere fully to these codes. Model job descriptions should be established for each professional category. They should contain an obligation to respect the rights of the child and to report violence to competent authorities; g. the necessary links should be established between institutions at national, regional and local levels, and effective partnerships should be built, based on the clear division of competencies fixed in respective partnership agreements; h. civil society should become an integral part of the institutional framework, and actors, such as human rights institutions, professional networks, children and children‘s organisations, should be invited to contribute to the strategy‘s design, implementation, evaluation and follow-up. 6.
