Children have the right to a safe environment and to protection from violence and injury. In addition, state authorities should safeguard the child’s well-being considering the rights and duties of his or her parents, legal guardian, or other legally responsible individuals. Institutions, facilities and services that are responsible for the of children should observe standards of safety, health, staff suitability and competent supervision. This is enshrined in article 3 of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the most widely ratified convention worldwide with 194 signatory states (Jamal, 2014; United Nations [UN], 1989). The WHO-Lancet Commission report released in February 2020 shows that very few countries have attained the Sustainable Development Goals (SGDs) set out 5 years ago.
