Bremen Youth and Children's Rights Office

The Youth and Children's Rights Office is the expert contact point for children's rights in Bremen. Our work is based on the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Strengthening children's rights

It is important that the rights of children and young people are known, respected, and implemented. Therefore, we inform children and young people about their rights and work with them to develop strategies for what they can do if their rights are violated.

Making children's rights tangible

Together with children's and youth groups, we want to implement initiatives to embed children's rights in the public consciousness. The participation of children and young people is central to this: the wishes, ideas, and demands of these groups should be heard in Bremen.

Offers

Children's and youth projects:
We work with existing children's and youth groups. In doing so, we particularly want to reach children and young people from disadvantaged groups or those in especially vulnerable situations.

Expert advice & cooperation:
We inform and connect professionals. These professionals should then become active as multipliers in matters of children's rights.

Public relations:
We raise awareness of children's rights and support the people of Bremen in their efforts to advocate for the rights of children and young people.
