United Nations Essential Documents Series
The United Nations Essential Documents Series brings together for the first time the most influential international instruments and treaties created by the United Nations since its founding in 1945. Each volume in the series presents the actual documents in full and as they originally appeared when published. A short introduction opens each volume which establishes the context for each source, provides a short history of how each of these instruments came into being, and describes the document’s impact on policymaking and positive change around the world. An invaluable resource for libraries, students, and scholars of peace and security, human rights, and development, these volumes will also serve as an essential teaching tool for those studying and writing about international relations in general and about the history of the world’s only true global organization specifically.

The Convention on the Rights of the Child
Thirty years ago, world leaders made a historic commitment to the world’s children by adopting the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. This Convention, one of the core human rights instruments, has become the most widely ratified human rights treaty in history and has helped transform children’s lives around the world. But still not every child gets to enjoy a full childhood. Still, too many childhoods are cut short. It is up to our generation to demand that governments, businesses and communities fulfil their commitments and take action for child rights now, once and for all. They must commit to making sure every child, has every right. This book is published to commemorate this momentous anniversary.
