The Global Child Forum describes itself as an independent, global multi-stakeholder platform for informed dialogue and thought leadership on how to advance children’s rights, in support of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Dr. Fiona Rotberg, the Research Director at the Global Child Forum, joined us to shed more light on this initiative and what it advocates, and to discuss the findings of this year's South East Asia Benchmark Study on Children’s Rights.
