A/HRC/23/59 was drawn to the millions of children living or working in the street and the challenges they faced in the realization of their right to health, including access to health services. D. Concluding remarks 44. The moderator invited panellists to address a number of issues, including the implementation of effective accountability mechanisms; reflecting on the family and cultural value systems; ensuring that disadvantaged groups, including children in street situations, had access to health services; and ensuring that mental health was integrated in health policies. 45. Mr. Hunt stated that, in order to implement effective accountability mechanisms, a combination of devices was needed, including parliaments, national human rights institutions and child rights commissioners, local health authorities, hospital boards and patient committees. In addition, all accountability measures should be underpinned by transparency and participation. In addressing how dialogue between United Nations agencies could be improved to ensure that the right of the child to health was implemented, the agencies should work together on specific projects in a collaborative spirit, at the request of intergovernmental bodies, such as the Human Rights Council. He added that governing boards of agencies should consider the right to health systematically, and give the political space to officials in the agencies to engage in inter-agency collaboration on human rights. He invited States in the Human Rights Council to take their views on the right to health to these bodies. 46. Ms. Herczog emphasized the importance of a right-based approach and, in particular, of the Convention on the Rights of the Child as a universal tool and framework that should be part of the post-2015 development agenda. The family was paramount and efforts should be made to support the role of the family and the parents. Parents should be supported in the development of non-violent and rightsbased methods. She stressed that developing good indicators was a complex issue, while noting the excellent set of indicators for child rights in early childhood that was already in use. 47. The Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Violence against Children stated that issues such as pregnancies of adolescent mothers created stigma and needed to be addressed in a culturally sensitive way. Children should be given the opportunity to receive information and participate as partners in all processes. With regard to the question of the links between the right of the child to health and women’s right to health, the Special Representative referred to the Commission on the Status of Women, which was also addressing the issue of violence against women and girls and noted the coincidence of the topic. She highlighted the need to increase cooperation between women’s rights organizations and children’s rights organizations. 48. Ms. de la Mata pointed out that specific policies were needed to ensure the inclusion of marginalized communities, in addition to broader declarations on access to health. She stated that, at the European level, specific programmes had been developed to address specific groups of children, such as Roma children, and that mental health was a central theme with regard to children’s health. 49. Mr. Chandy reiterated that the family was the basic unit for the protection of the child. He also stressed that rapid urbanization in Asia and Africa had led to a growing number of children living on the street. It was essential to ensure that care structures were built for children in street situations and addressed health and 13
