The role of Professor Tadeusz Smyczyński as a drafter of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child

Human rights-the rights of the child / Tadeusz Smyczyński, Marek Andrzejewski. Miskolc ; Budapest : Central European Academic Publishing, 2025, s. 7-28.

The United Nations (UN) Convention on the Rights of the Child 2 has introduced and/or supported many positive changes in the perceptions of children, the way of thinking about children and childhood, children’s relations with the adult world, the duties of the state and its various agencies towards children, and international legal standards for their protection. The first draft of the Convention was prepared by Polish lawyer Prof. Tadeusz Smyczyński; his contribution to this piece of legislation, nonetheless, was later attributed to others, especially those who did not participate in the process as lawyers but as politicians, particularly because he never cared about fame.
