The COVID-19 pandemic is a global physical emergency, in this context it is mandatory to ensure that young people, young people and adolescents are a vulnerable group, who are exposed to the serious physical, emotional and mental effects that prolonged confinement produces. . In just a few weeks, the children and youth population has noticed their social life radically transformed: circles of schools, schools and daycares; conditions of activity within the family circle in relation to the dubious pro and economic shadow; difficulties in accessing distance education platforms; prohibition of going out on the street or playing in squares and parks.
It is mandatory to incorporate express measures aimed at them, taking into account their needs, their life situations and the protection of their rights from a comprehensive application. We join the government and society as a whole to detect the specific need to protect the rights of young people, young people and adolescents in the context of the pandemic and adopt emergency measures:
1. All measures and responses to the pandemic that have been put into effect by the State must ensure and protect respect for the rights of girls, young people and adolescents, taking into account their most productive interests, valuing the short term. the consequences. medium and long term. 2. Educational processes in the emergency context must ensure the social, emotional and mental well-being of young people, women and adolescents. From an integral point of view of the school challenge, it is mandatory to involve the support and contribution of mothers, fathers and families in cases of uncertainty and vulnerability. It must ensure access to schooling in a universal and equitable manner with specific attention to ANI who are located in poverty scenarios. 3. It is mandatory to guarantee employment conditions through labor flexibility measures that make accommodation and remote work compatible. Strengthen and put in place systems to advise and the difficulties you could possibly experience with families of children, women and adolescents. 4. The existing scenario can disseminate young people, young people and adolescents to various bureaucracies and scenarios of violence, as they disseminate themselves to new scenarios, to control or to the accumulation of past violence. The use of means to maintain continuity of care for installations and shielding, prevention and repair systems is mandatory. Strengthen data channels and telephone service facilities through an online bureaucracy platform. Develop awareness campaigns on the prevention of family violence, mistreatment and child sexual abuse.
5. Restrictions on freedom of movement must not have direct consequences or modifications of the facts and/or judicial decisions related to the rights of children, women and adolescents. The right of the child or adolescent to maintain a direct and normal relationship with their parents when they live separately, as well as child support debts, must protect them, taking into account their most productive interests.
6. It is mandatory to publicize the participation of young people, women and adolescents in the context of movement restriction measures. Ensure that the policy measures followed are taken into account in the decision-making process. Children deserve not only to be informed and perceive what is happening, but also to participate in decisions that have an effect on them. Generate a communication strategy that considers the main recipients of young people, young people and adolescents. 7. Residential or confinement care contexts must be provided through the implementation of adaptation measures and action protocols. You must guarantee the maintenance of communication and family and network relationships during the emergency. It is also mandatory to have talents and incorporate equipment for the first mental assistants of the technical and private painting teams. Promote family help processes wherever possible. 8. It is necessary to take measures to mitigate the economic and social impact of the pandemic during direct economic business trips so that families benefit from problems such as food and assistance to children, young people and adolescents, especially in cases of inflammation. or disability. 9. All the measures that have been followed will have to be given to the ANI as a priority during the current period, but also to the middle and senior positions. Our project is to generate a coordinating framework or technical table that can promote smart practices, surveys, sectoral data and integration of foreign experience in emergency management. This is the data on the situation of young people, women and adolescents.
