08 July 2009CRIN is a global network coordinating and promoting information and action on child rights. CRIN presses for rights, not charity, for children and is guided by a passion for putting children’s rights at the top of the global agenda by addressing root causes and promoting systematic change. Its guiding framework is the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC).

The site states that it has more than 2,000 member organisations. It allows for searching of information by country, themes, International and national law and lists content in English, Arabic, Spanish and French.

The network is supported, and receives funding from The Tides Foundation, The Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA), Save the Children Sweden, UNICEF and World Vision International. Project funding is also received from the Westminster Foundation for Democracy and the Oak Foundation.
