The document discusses the rights of children and efforts made by the United Nations and India to protect them. The UN adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948 and the Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989 to ensure people worldwide enjoy fundamental rights. As a signatory, India is obligated to uphold these rights and has implemented policies like the Right to Education Act 2009. Teachers have an important role in creating a child-friendly environment in schools and protecting children from violations of their rights.
