- Accumulating recognized expertise across major children's issues and child rights strategies;
- Carrying out culturally grounded child rights field-based research and technical assistance;
- Convening national and international conferences on sexual exploitation. families, children and their environments, child rights in education and child participation; and
- Developing a variety of culturally grounded rights-based programs and resources.

The International Institute for Child Rights and Development works in partnership with a multidisciplinary team of academics, front-line workers, community members, policy-makers and professionals from universities, professional associations, NGO's, government agencies and UN organizations.
