CRIN is a creative human rights organisation
We work on children’s rights issues that are emerging, neglected or impossible to ignore.
We use research, policy, art and advocacy to press for rights – not charity. We want to ask questions that challenge the status quo because the norms that dictate children’s place in society need radical change.

The landmark Advisory Opinions from the International Court of Justice and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights may have fundamentally reshaped States’ legal obligations on climate action. In this article, CRIN analyses both recent Advisory Opinions through a children’s rights lens, highlighting the often-overlooked position of children in climate policy and decision-making.
