AZERBAIJAN: Report on monitoring the juvenile justice system

The NGO Alliance for Children’s Right’s report on Azerbaijan’s juvenile justice system describes a system that all too often is failing its children. The report found a number of cases in which, instead of protecting juveniles and promoting rehabilitation, the system victimises juveniles, placing them in detention facilities and often without subsequent review. The report portrays a system lacking in resources both physical and human that can meet the special needs of children. it further illustrates the country’s need for comprehensive social policy promoting the well being of juveniles.pdf: www.ngoalliance.net
