Abstract

Article 37 of the United Nations Conventions on the Rights of the Child (CRC) concerns the establishment of leading principles regarding the detention of the child. Articles 37(b), (c) and (d) establish a broad range of standards in regard to deprivation of liberty of children expressed as legal requirements related to the use of deprivation of liberty, provisions regarding the treatment of children deprived of their liberty, and procedural and substantive rights for every child deprived of liberty. This article provides a detailed commentary on the normative aspects of Article 37 (b), (c) and (d) CRC, providing for a legal child-oriented framework on the issue surrounding the detention and deprivation of liberty of children.
