Hem / Fact Sheets about The Rights of the Child in Tobacco Control
Barnets Rätt i Tobaksfrågan – The Right of the Child in Tobacco Control – is a project in which we look at tobacco policy issues from children´s perspectives. Our work is based on the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, FCTC. Our goal is to build bridges between the two conventions.
One of our methods is an analysis of important articles in FCTC from the perspective of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. Which connections can we find between the articles in the two conventions? This analysis is presented in fact sheets, one for each FCTC article. You can download the fact sheets in English on the links below.
