Dr. Carmel Corrigan:

Going back to the DSGBV strategy, I am beginning to sound like a broken record but this is an area the UN committee in the concluding observations identified as requiring urgent action on behalf of the State in relation to children’s awareness and their education around all types of violence, including DSGBV. This is something we need services in, that we need to provide for children in and we need a firm driver that children are very much part of this. The international recommendations are there and might be worth considering as well.
