The United Nations (UN) concluded a Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989. The Convention entered into force in Finland in 1991. Nearly every nation in the world is party to the Convention. The Finnish State must ensure that the issues set out in the Convention are implemented in children’s lives. The Finnish State is also required to make information on children’s rights available to adults and children alike and regularly report to the UN on how the rights and wellbeing of children have developed in Finland.
