„Children’s Rights Situation in the Residential Care and Education Institutions in Lithuania“
Six organizations, namely Global Initiative in Psychiatry, Lithuanian Association of Telephone Emergency Services, “Viltis” Lithuanian Welfare Society for Persons With Disability, Human Rights
Monitoring Institute, Children Support Centre, and Children’s Rights Ombudsman of the Republic of Lithuania, have formed a coalition with a purpose of surveying children’s rights situation in child care and special education institutions in Lithuania.
Between November 2005 and April 2006, the experts from the coalition have visited 20 institutions involved in the care, support and education of children.
The purpose of the survey was to analyze children’s rights situation in the child care system of Lithuania on the whole, and not in the separate institutions. Therefore, the report does not include information on specific violations detected in specific institutions. Also, most of children’s rights violations detected should not be attributed to specific institutions, since they are caused by ineffective cooperation between various services as well as incomplete distribution of responsibility, i.e. systemic problems.
Data provided in the report has been collected from the children, administration of the abovementioned institutions, and staff directly working with children.
