Introduire la Convention internationale des droits de l’enfant du 20 novembre 1989 dans la Constitution

Stage committeeUpdated 7d ago

This is a French constitutional bill proposing to incorporate the 1989 UN Convention on the Rights of the Child into the French Constitution. The Convention sets out international standards on children's rights, including protection, education, health and participation. Constitutional recognition would give these principles the highest legal rank in France, meaning laws would need to be consistent with them. The change would primarily affect children in France and the authorities responsible for legislation and public policy affecting minors, such as courts, schools and child protection services. Its precise practical effects would depend on the final wording adopted. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text.
