Working with children and young people
Rehabilitation services for torture survivors often provide services for children and young
people. Young people may be unaccompanied (where services include healthcare, social
care, education support, advocacy, or legal support) or they may be seen with their
families, as individuals or in groups of other minors. They may have directly experienced
torture and/or ill-treatment, or witnessed parents or other family members or others
being tortured, or be in families where family members and/or parents were tortured or
they may have been child soldiers. Some services provide services specific to different
groups of minors (e.g. unaccompanied minors), others provide more general support,
individual therapy, group activities/therapy and other therapeutic services for children in
the context of family work. Some services offer school-based interventions or prevention
activities. The cultural, social and political context, including the availability and nature
of State services, in each country setting may dictate how services for children and
young people are organised and the nature of services offered.
Services for children and young people
It is good practice to:
Promote in all rehabilitation and prevention activities the founding principles
and the rights of the child as set out in the Convention on the Rights of the
Child (CRC):
