The international concern regarding the value of children’s rights led tothe signing, in 20th November 1989, in New York City, of the Convention on the Child Rights. This convention establishes the international framework for the protection of the child’s rights, having, as a basis, the Declaration of the Child Rights, signed in 20th November 1959, as well as other referent documents and conventions on the matter. The convention acknowledges the childhood’s special status and affirms the necessity of its protection by the ruling of an assembly of norms and social-judicial institutions of assistance and of security, creating a complex judicial document which reunites the child’s civil rights, as well as political, economical, social and cultural-educational rights into an unitary and undividable system.
