CRIN is launching a global research report on life imprisonment as part of the Inhuman Sentencing Campaign that highlights the prevalence and plurality of laws permitting life imprisonment for children.

This leaflet gives an overview of the latest developments in national legislations on corporal punishment of children.

'This has been a devastating year for those seeking to stand up for human rights and for those caught up in the suffering of war zones. We must hope that, looking backward to 2014 in the years to come, what we lives through will be seen as an ultimate low point from which we rose up and created a better future.'
