Child Rights Center

About the Center

The Majesty King Abdullah II Bin Al Hussein and Queen Rania Al Abdullah have had the effort to keep Jordan in the forefront of countries that defend the rights of the child and maintain his/her freedom and dignity. This was translated through the ratification of the Convention on the Rights of the Children, where Jordan is one of the first countries that have ratified this Convention, and emanating from the principles enunciated in the Charter of the United Nations. Also Jordan was one of the first countries which held a national conference about children care under the special patronage of the former Majesty the King Hussein, may God bless his soul and rest him in peace.

Isra University has taken the initiative steps to create a center for the rights of the child, which was founded in 2011. This center seeks the rights of children to contribute to shed light on the main problems and issues of human rights pressing in Jordan and its impact on the child, and coordination with the various parties involved and work together in order to raise public awareness of these issues and try to find solutions and alternatives to comply with international laws for children's rights.
