A children's ombudsman, children's commissioner, youth commissioner, child advocate, children's commission, youth ombudsman or equivalent body is a public authority in various countries charged with the protection and promotion of the rights of children and young people, either in society at large, or in specific categories such as children in contact with the care system. The agencies usually have a substantial degree of independence from the executive, and generally operate as specialised ombudsman offices or national human rights institutions, dealing with individual complaints, intervening with other public authorities, conducting research, and – where their mandate permits them to engage in advocacy – generally promoting children's rights in public policy, law and practice. The first children's commissioner was established in Norway in 1981. The creation of such institutions has been promoted by the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child, and, from 1990 onwards, by the Council of Europe.[1][2]

Largely a European phenomenon, although some exist in other regions, many of the institutions belong to the European Network of Ombudspersons for Children (ENOC).[3] There are also sub-regional networks, including the Children's Rights Ombudspersons' Network in South and Eastern Europe (CRONSEE), created in 2006, and the British and Irish Network of Ombudsmen and Children’s Commissioners (BINOCC), which first met in 2005.[4][5]

Children's Ombudsman services by country

Australia

The first National Children's Commissioner, appointed in February 2013 for a five-year term commencing 25 March, is Megan Mitchell, formerly the New South Wales Commissioner for Children and Young People. Her role is to promote public discussion and awareness of issues affecting children; conduct research and education programs; consult directly with children and representative organisations; and examine Commonwealth legislation, policies and programs that relating to children's human rights.[6] The Australian Human Rights Commission had proposed the creation of the office in 2010,[7] and the Commissioner will be based within the AHRC.[6]

The Commonwealth Ombudsman and State ombudsmen retain some jurisdiction over matters affecting children.

Children's commissioner offices, varying in remit, have been created at state and territorial level. Most have a limited remit, focussing on disadvantaged children such as those in government care, or children with no one to act on their behalf.[7]

  • In the Australian Capital Territory, the ACT Human Rights Commission includes a Children and Young People Commissioner.[8] The office has a broad mandate to promote and protect the rights of all children and young people in the ACT.[7] The current ACT Children and Young People Commissioner is Alasdair Roy.[6]
  • The creation of a Commission for Children and Young People[9] in New South Wales followed a legislative reform in 1998 that gave specific child protection responsibilities to the state ombudsman.[1]
  • In the Northern Territory, the Office of the Children's Commissioner was established by the territorial Assembly's Care and Protection of Children Act 2007. Its initially restricted remit - including complaint handling, monitoring follow-up to the Inquiry into the Protection of Aboriginal Children from Sexual Abuse, reduction of child mortality, and certain other matters - was significantly expanded by a legislative amendment in 2011 giving it the right to mount investigations on its own initiative.[10] The current Commissioner is Howard Bath.
  • Queensland's Commission for Children and Young People and Child Guardian.[11]
  • The Office of the Guardian for Children and Young People, South Australia.[12]
  • The Office of the Child Safety Commissioner, Victoria.[13]
  • The Commissioner for Children and Young People, Western Australia.[14]

Austria

The Federal Children’s Ombudsman ({{lang-de|Kinder- und Jugendanwaltschaft des Bundes}}) was established by the Federal Youth Welfare Act 1989, since when each of the nine Bundesländer (states) have set up an Ombudsman for Children and Youth. The federal office is funded through the Federal Ministry for Social Security, Generations and Consumer Protection.[15][16]

Bangladesh

Although no office has yet been established, the social scientist Kamal Uddin Siddiqui, a former member of the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, has since March 2004 promoted the establishment of an Independent Children's Commissioner for Bangladesh. He led a Government delegation to France, Norway and Sweden in February 2004 to study the Children's Ombudsman institutions in those countries.

Belgium

Belgium has two agencies, both members of the ENOC network.

The Child Rights Commission ({{lang-nl|Kinderrechtencommissariaat}}) was established by the Flemish Parliament in June 1998. The Commission's services include mediation, information, complaints about possible violations of child rights and policy advice. It conducts public information and education campaigns, conducts and monitors research, and offers views on legislative initiatives that may affect minors. The Commission reports annually to the Flemish Parliament. The current Commissioner, Bruno Vanobbergen, was appointed in 2009.[17]

Bernard De Vos is the Commissioner for Child Rights of the French Community ({{lang-fr|Délégué général de la Communauté française aux droits de l’enfant}}), which has a more or less identical range of functions but was created by, and reports to, the Parliament of the French Community.[18]

Bosnia and Herzegovina

The Human Rights Ombudsman of Bosnia and Herzegovina has as one of its seven departments a Child Rights Section (Bosnian: Odjel za praćenje prava djece),[19] and is a full member of ENOC.

The office, established in 2008, promotes legislative compliance with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child; investigates alleged violations of the rights and interests of children; advocates the rights and interests of children, and conducts public information and education work.[20]

Canada

The Canadian provinces have a variety of agencies that serve as more or less independent advocates of the rights of children, particularly those that have been clients of social services. They differ in mandate but share a commitment to child rights, and co-ordinate their activities through the Canadian Council of Child and Youth Advocates (CCCYA).

  • In Alberta, the Ministry of Children’s Services created an office of Children's Advocate in September 1989; in 2004 this became the Office of the Child and Youth Advocate (OCYA). As an internal advocacy system, the Advocate's services can only be accessed by, or on behalf of, young people already served under the Child, Youth and Family Enhancement Act (Enhancement Act) or the Protection of Sexually Exploited Children Act (PSECA).[21]
  • In British Columbia, the Representative for Children and Youth (RCY) provides policy advice and advocacy services on behalf of all children and young people (under 19), and in particular, supports children, youth and families who need help in dealing with the care services provided by the Ministry of Children and Family Development.[22] Prior to the creation of the RCY, the provincial Ombudsman had, in 1987, designated a Deputy Ombudsman for Children and Youth.[1]
  • In Manitoba, although limited to dealing with children and young people who have been in contact with official childcare and adoption services, the Office of the Children's Advocate of Manitoba has a degree of independence, and complaint-handling and advisory functions, similar to those of an ombudsman.[23]
  • The Nova Scotia Ombudsman has a children's ombudsman section.[1]

The agency is full member of ENOC.[25] In 2011 the Commissioner presented her first parallel report to the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child.[26]

Denmark

In February 2011 the Danish government turned down a renewed request from a United Nations committee to create the position of Ombudsman for Children ({{lang-da|Børneombudsmand}});[27] the UN body had in 2001 suggested as an alternative the creation of a child rights focal point within the national ombudsman office[1]

There is a National Council for Children ({{lang-da|Børnerådet}}), a statutory national institution which is politically independent although administratively linked with the Ministry of Family and Consumer Affairs. The Council works to safeguard the rights of children; it provides information on conditions for children in society and offers advice and consultancy to authorities on issues concerning children.[28]

  • The Tennessee Commission on Children and Youth (TCCY) Ombudsman for Children, Youth and Families is an external problem resolution mechanism for children in the custody of the Department of Children's Services, relative caregiver program or Child Protective Services (CPS) system. TCCY has statutory authority to review children in the foster care system, kinship care or CPS and make recommendations for improvement. The Ombudsman helps to resolve problems mediating the concerns of each person involved in the child's or family's case. The Ombudsman may serve as an advocate for the family, the state, or the provider, but always works for the child's best interests.[78]
  • In Utah, the Office of Child Protection Ombudsman (OCPO) was established by the State Legislature to help resolve concerns about the protection of children receiving services from the Division of Child and Family Services (DCFS). The Ombudsman receives and investigates complaints.[79]
