Hesse is the first federal state to commission the development of a federal state-level monitoring system for the implementation of children's rights. The monitoring system is intended to observe and assess the social and legal realities of life for more than 1.1 million children and adolescents in hesse. The summary of the monitoring concept explains the foundations for children's and youth rights monitoring in Hesse and formulates recommendations for the monitoring, its three starting points, and goals: rights awareness, participation, and education on the basis of equal opportunity. The monitoring is designed to observe progress and setbacks in these areas according to the guidelines of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UN-CRC). The summary was presented at the 91 Session of the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child in Geneva.
