CRC Asia is a network of child rights organizations working together to be a strong voice for child rights in the region by leading in strengthening child rights movements, promoting innovative programs, and advocating better policies for and with the children. A key part of its work is the advancement of children’s right to be heard on issues that either directly or indirectly affect them, including the development of CRVS systems.
