a-system-just-for-children

This research is one of the first conducted in Cambodia to look in detail at the experience of child witnesses and victims who go through the Cambodian criminal justice system. It particularly aims to give voice to children’s views. The study investigates initial reporting of the crime, police involvement, investigation/arrest, NGO assistance, medical examinations, legal representation, pre-trial preparation, experience in court and post–trial issues. The study is primarily qualitative and compiles information from 103 respondents, including 54 children.
