The report was published in the framework of the Mario project by Tdh Delegation in Kosovo. It provides an easy-to-use reference guide to all the laws and regulations that are focusing on protecting the rights of children in different fields, from child protection to education and health. After defining ‘children’, the document first reviews the constitution of Kosovo, then Chapter 4 covers social protection, Chapter 5. children and justice, Chapter 6 health and health protection, Chapter 7 education, Chapter 8 leisure time and cultural activities. Chapter 9 and 10 review the institutional mechanisms and governmental bodies that work for upholding children’s rights. It concludes that a considerable part of legal ground covers principles and provisions of the convention for Children’s Rights. Also, the Republic of Kosovo has made significant advancements by enabling the establishment of a number of mechanisms that facilitate the fulfilment children’s rights by state authorities.
