  • Description: BackgroundChild Rights Convention (CRC) was ratified already 40 years ago and UN members states reported that changed and harmonised their legislation in accordance to CRC. However it is clear for pediatricians from the routine practice that there is a lack of informtion among child population about CRC and child rights implementation related to their health and development.The aim of our study was to define how well children and adolescents (10–18 yo) of modern Russia are informed about their rights. We used our book ‘CRC in the fairtales of the world’ (ISSN 978-5-906332-81-3) to discuss with children and adolescents some articles of CRC related to general principles (articles 2-3-6-12), disability, basic health and wellfare (articles 23-24-26-27) and partially - family environment and alternative care (articles 18-20-21-25). The process included 3 days discussions with children and adolescents (with 4 discussions of each article during 30–45 Min - totally 120–180 min/day and 3 breaks for tea and snacks). Participants were randomly recruited in 4 schools of Moscow and Moscow’s region. All children and their caregivers signed before the start of the study.Results there was no difference among groups (15-17-19 persons) in average age (12,783±0,043) or gender and sex distribution. All children under 13 were non-informed about their rights and the implementaton necesssity of CRS into real practice. Other respondents (from 14 to 18) was very critical to State, Gouvernement and even schools/medical doctors and mass media. No one from the groups was discussing the role of parents/caregivers/families in spreading this information (passive type of behavior).ConclusionFurther education of children and adolescents in the field of their rights implementation is needed.
