H O W D O E S C A N A D A M E A S U R E U P ? Components of the NGO Permanent Monitoring Mechanism The Need for a Permanent Monitoring Mechanism Monitoring the Convention on the Rights of the Child is a complex endeavour. Although different approaches can be taken, some kind of systematic mechanism is needed to monitor implementation over time. The Convention on the Rights of the Child is holistic, intricate and inter-related. Monitoring networks made up of experts and organizations must be participatory, broad and inclusive. The Canadian Coalition for the Rights of Children has piloted a process for monitoring that is systematic, ongoing and true to the Convention. This mechanism involves many networks, uses key questions to keep the research unbiased and focused, includes situational analyses to bring the research to life, and encourages a diversity of viewpoints in the evaluation process. 119 Guiding Principles These guiding principles direct all aspects of the monitoring process: • The Convention will define the focus of the research. • Information will be gathered objectively and without bias. • The final report will be accessible and inform future monitoring exercises. Participation Non-governmental organizations, experts and children are involved throughout the monitoring process to assist in: • developing and reviewing the key questions; • identifying relevant sources of information; • gathering voices of youth; • reviewing the situational analysis; and • evaluating compliance. Participation can be formalized by striking task groups for each area of research.
