A/HRC/25/47 VI. Looking ahead 137. The present report presents an overview of strategic developments promoted by the Special Representative in advancing progress in the implementation of the Study recommendations. These initiatives have helped to further consolidate commitment to children’s protection from violence and strengthen advocacy, legal and policy action for violence prevention and elimination. 138. In line with the priorities set out for the second term of the mandate, the Special Representative enhanced efforts to anchor the Study recommendations in the national policy agenda; to tackle concerns associated with violence prevention and elimination in the justice system; and to promote the inclusion of children’s protection from violence as a crucial dimension in the post-2015 development agenda. 139. The Special Representative will continue to mobilize support for these important efforts and for the identification of goals and targets to accelerate progress in the protection of children from all forms of violence. We need to measure what we treasure. And if we are to succeed, it is critical that children and young people enjoy genuine participation in this process — not as accidental partners, but as real agents of change. 140. The Special Representative looks forward to pursuing her collaboration with Member States and all other stakeholders in the further strengthening of this crucial agenda and the building of a world free from violence. 24
