SUMMARY:Virtual Side Event on a Child Rights Approach to the LBI Draft Treaty on Business and Human Rights
DESCRIPTION:Business activities and enterprises significantly affect children in all aspects of their lives. As the Committee on the Rights of the Child highlighted\, “children are both rights-holders and stakeholders in business”. Children are potential consumers targeted by marketing strategies and possibly using harmful or unsuitable products and services\, off and online. Many are workers in the formal or informal economy. They are family members of business employees and\, as such\, they may be directly affected by their working conditions and environment. Children are also members or residents of communities and environments\, which are affected by business activities or in which business operates. Children are “often disproportionately affected by the adverse impact of business activities”. Yet\, the impact of business on children and their rights is often still invisible to many stakeholders: governmental bodies\, decision makers within the business sector but also human rights advocates. \nThe aim of this virtual side event\, which will be held on Wedneday October 21 from 1pm to 2:30pm CEST\, is to create a platform to exchange on priorities to be raised and addressed during the 6th Session of the open-ended inter- governmental working group on transnational corporations and other business enterprises with respect to human rights (OEIGWG) from October 26 to October 30\, 2020. This event will hear from diverse and relevant stakeholders on how they are addressing the impact of business activities and enterprises on the lives of children and youth and how a legally binding instrument could regulate and mitigate the negative impact on their rights. \nPanellists:\n• Anita Goh\, International Commission of Jurists: Presentation of the legal analysis\n• Emanuella Ribeiro Halfeld Maciel\, Clínica de Direitos Humanos\, Federal University of Minas Gerais\,\nchildren rights violations and mining tailing dams (Brazil)\n• Gabriela Kühn\, ECPAT International – Case study on child protection from sexual exploitation in the\ncontext of business activities\n• Cristina Duranti\, Good shephard sisters international foundation – Case study child rights violations\nin the context of mining\, DR Congo \nThe side-event will be held on Zoom at the following link:\nhttp://bit.ly/ChildRightsSideEvent (Meeting-ID: 857 4944 6537 Access code: 749664) \nPlease register here if you wish to attend the event and check the concept note for additional information! \nEvent Contacts:\nChild Rights Connect: Maty Diawara – programmes2@childrightsconnect.org\nDKA Austria: Ingrid Pintaritsch – ingrid.pintaritsch@dka.at

SUMMARY:Strategic litigation before the UN: a tool for social and legal change
DESCRIPTION:Join us\, in person or online\, for a Presentation by partners Litigating cases of Girls victims of Sexual Violence and Forced Pregnancies at the UN treaty bodies\, including the CRC \nGlobal Planned Parenthood and the Center for Reproductive Rights together with in-country partners\, will be presenting cases being submitted to the UN treaty bodies\, including the Committee on the Rights of the Child involving girls victims of sexual violence who were forced to carry their pregnancies to term in several Latin American countries. The case brought before the CRC will be the first time the Committee will have to pronounce itself through an individual communication on the public health problem of forced pregnancies which violates girls’ right to health; education; and information\, among others; \nThe event will also be an opportunity to hear first-hand about the litigation strategy and why for example the case presented to the Committee on the Rights of the Child was not instead submitted to the CEDAW or a regional human rights court.
