The Implementation of Education and Instruction Rights for Children with Criminal Law Issues who are Being Detained in Correctional Facilities and State Detention Centers
Abstract
Children are a gift from God and also the future generation to continue the nation’s ideals. Therefore, they have the rights to survive, grow, and develop. For this reason, it is necessary to give them protection, both physical and spiritual, including children with criminal law issues. The juvenile criminal justice system is of particular concern for law enforcement officials, considering that children are described in national and international human rights as a vulnerable and specially-treated group. All countries are obliged and have the responsibility to ensure the fulfillment of these special rights for every child. The education and instruction rights for every child, including children with criminal law issues who are being detained in correctional facilities and state detention centers, are directed at activities such as skills training and knowledge enrichment.
Keywords: education and instruction rights, child prisoners, correctional facility, state detention center
