Islamabad : UNICEF Pakistan and the Islamic Research Institute (IRI) of the International Islamic University Islamabad (IIUI) signed an agreement to improve children’s rights in Pakistan. This agreement is part of a research project that uses behavioral science to encourage discussions and changes in society about child rights.

Speakers at the event urged the need to protect children’s rights to survival, education, and safety from violence. They said the challenge isn’t the laws but the social attitudes that allow discrimination and violence against children.
