Description
This policy paper intends to analyse the situation of migrant children, the state of their rights and guarantees from their arrival in Andalusia until they become adults. The aim of this report is to denounce the systematic violations that are taking place, contrary to international, national and regional regulations which establish "the best interests of the child" as a guiding principle that should guide all policies, decisions and actions.
