The content of this publication is the responsibility of the Maat Foundation for Peace, Development and Human Rights and can in no way be considered a reflection of the vision of the European Union.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Introduction: - <\/strong><\/p>\n Within the framework of the \u201cPublic Policy Analysis and Human Rights Unit\u201d interest in the Maat Foundation for Peace, Development and Human Rights with the recommendations that were made to Egypt in light of the universal periodic review and the Egyptian government's position on the recommendations and in light of the institution\u2019s implementation of the \u201cUniversal Periodic Review as a tool for improving public policies during the transitional phase\u201d, Funded by the European Union during 2016-2017, the Foundation has focused on shedding light on that issue through a paper explaining the most important problems of the phenomenon of homeless children, with the aim of reducing that phenomenon.<\/p>\n The paper dealt with this phenomenon by presentation and analysis in multiple axes, which included in the first axis the definition of children, the concept and the causes of the problem of homeless children, then in the second axis it moved to present the consequences of that phenomenon, and in the third axis the paper talked about the human rights, constitutional and legal frameworks of the phenomenon with a presentation Fast for the most important efforts made to eradicate this phenomenon, then in the fourth axis the paper presented the most important legal problems and the institution that helps spread the phenomenon, and in the last axis the paper concluded with a set of recommendations related to some legislative amendments and the most important institutional reforms.<\/p>\n The first axis: introducing children to the concept of the problem and its causes <\/strong><\/p>\n International law considers that a child is every person under the age of eighteen, and therefore anyone under this age is entitled to special aspects of protection when brought to trial. The United Nations Rules for the Protection of Juveniles Deprived of Liberty defined a juvenile as \u201cevery person under the age of eighteen,\u201d while the \u201cConvention on the Rights of the Child\u201d defines a child as every person under eighteen unless the enactment of national law specifies another age for reaching adulthood. Each country has the right to set the age of majority, but it should not deviate significantly from international standards<\/p>\n Street children are considered to be males or females under the age of eighteen years who live, sleep, eat and play in the streets. They do not work or work in an informal and unauthorized manner and their relationship with their families is often cut off. The definition is also related to those children who are homeless and sell on the street or who beg or They sell sweets, wipe car windows, or similar occupations on traffic lights, on transportation, or in streets and public squares.<\/p>\n The reasons for the spread of the phenomenon of homeless children are many, especially after Egypt witnessed in recent years rapid changes that included various aspects of life in society. The following are the most important causes of the spread of the phenomenon: -<\/p>\n The lack of a comprehensive official inventory of the phenomenon of homeless children is considered one of the most important obstacles to treating the phenomenon, and despite the announcement by the National Center for Social and Criminal Research, in cooperation with the Ministry of Social Security, on the number of homeless children in Egypt, it was not according to a comprehensive survey and does not reflect the real reality of the crisis in terms of number and classification, Street children were concentrated in the governorates of Egypt, where the center followed the comprehensive survey approach by taking a single shot that lasted only 19 hours in 27 governorates at the same time with 3800 researchers, in which the center indicated that there are 16 thousand and 19 children concentrated in 2558 regions nationwide, and there are in Cairo 4487 children in 703 areas, and in Giza, 1658 children in 187 regions, and in Qalyubia, 1342 children in 197 regions, and in Minya, 1061 children in 115 regions, and there are 927 children in Sharkia divided into 181 regions, and in Assiut 793 children divided into 78 regions. In Alexandria, there are 742 children in 97 regions, while Menoufia has 614 children in 57 regions, and in Suez, there are 594 children in 57 regions, and in Beni Suef there are 521 children in 125 regions, and in Dakahlia there are 410 children divided into 92 regions, and in Kafr El Sheikh exist 396 children in 84 districts, and in Port Said 381 children concentrated in 104 regions, and in Aswan 368 children in 63 regions, and in Gharbia 349 children in 73 districts, while 250 children in Qena are concentrated in 64 districts, and in Sohag 214 children in 49 districts As for Luxor, it has 193 children in 21 districts, and in Beheira 181 children in 73 regions, and in Damietta 158 children in 48 regions, and in the Red Sea, 134 children are concentrated in 16 districts, and in Fayoum 102 children in 33 regions, and in Ismailia 63 children in 24 A region, and in North Sinai there are 70 children in 9 regions, and in South Sinai there are 11 children divided into 7 regions. (<\/sup>[2]<\/sup><\/a>).<\/sup><\/p>\n The study showed that 88% of them are concentrated in urban areas and 12% in villages, and the percentage of males is 83% and females are 17%, 86.9% of them are healthy, while the rest is distributed among the various disabilities.<\/p>\n The study also indicates that Cairo is the city in which the homeless are most prevalent, as its streets shelter 31.6% of the total number of homeless people in all of Egypt, which amounts to nearly two million children, followed by Port Said governorate with a homeless rate of 16.8% ([3]<\/a><\/sup>)<\/sup><\/p>\n Despite this official report issued by the Ministry of Solidarity, another report by UNICEF confirms that street children are close to 2 million children in 2014. ([4]<\/a>)<\/sup> This indicates the conflict of official reports with reports of international institutions.<\/p>\n The second axis: the consequences of the spread of the phenomenon <\/strong><\/p>\n In an investigation published for Nisf Al Dunya magazine ([5]<\/a>)<\/sup> In it, it confirmed the occurrence of more than eighteen thousand crimes related to homeless children in one year only against each other and against citizens and state institutions, including murders, kidnappings, rape, sexual harassment and others, and although the phenomenon of street children is considered an ancient phenomenon in Egyptian society, but The majority of Egyptians began to feel it to a large degree during the past ten years, and the Egyptians woke up to it, especially when they woke up to the recent incident of al-Turbini, who was dubbed the serial killer of homeless children (street children) and who was involved in the sexual abuse and killing of about 40 children.<\/p>\n The homeless children are also exposed to the attraction of organized criminal groups for them, and their taking easy and cheap tools for illegal activities. They may use tools in promoting and distributing contraband, especially drugs of all kinds, or immoral acts.<\/p>\n The homeless children are exposed to the exploitation of human trafficking gangs in all their forms and at all levels, as these children fall into trafficking operations by others in the distribution, packaging or provision of drugs for abuse, and most of them cannot stay away from activity either because of their addiction or because of coercion and fear of punishment by the trafficker.<\/p>\n It is also considered one of the most important and dangerous forms of human trafficking is the use of homeless children in prostitution, and it is one of the forms of human trafficking that is very profitable for gangs that shelter these children, as the child can be exploited in sexual trade, without concern for the child's humanity and without concern for his life.<\/p>\n Some gangs sometimes use children to transfer organs, especially the cornea of the eye - and then the child is then used to beg, using his visual impairment - under the pressure of coercion or the threat that these gangs exert on children, as the Ministry of Interior announced some time ago about Its arrest of a group of criminals who use children in continuous blood donation operations and sell it, which also falls under human trafficking.<\/p>\n The homeless children under the pressure of want are also forced to work in scavenging garbage, looking for things that are sold to garbage dealers, or working as a shoe-sweeper for an unfair payment.<\/p>\n Al-Badeel website also published a press investigation ([6]<\/a>The homeless children have been subjected to kidnappings as they are valuable catch for the gangs, which see them as just street children who do not have families, and no one will ask them in their absence, to be deported out of Egypt illegally through international gangs that exploit them in the drug trade and begging even trafficking in Their human organs.<\/p>\n The phenomenon of begging among these children is spread due to the lack of work opportunities for them, so they are forced to beg to secure a living if they are not blackmailed by gangs that attract homeless children, exploiting their need for a place to shelter them.<\/p>\n Begging is one of the most common methods in which children are exploited and they may resort to it with individual efforts, or by joining professionals in begging, and the child who has a great ability to act and draw compassion from donors excels in it. When children join under the care of those who exploit them in begging, there are several measures taken by the criminal To spread fear in the souls of children, including that one of them is severely punished as a result of hiding part of the proceeds of begging, and the matter may amount to causing him a disability, or sexually assaulting him, and after controlling the child completely, protection is provided to him, whether by alerting him to the police or whoever attacks him. Older than him, along with providing drugs and a shelter.<\/p>\n The law considers the child vulnerable to delinquency if he is found a beggar, does not have a stable place of residence, mixes with those who are disinterested and who are vulnerable to delinquency, or he keeps running away from schools and educational institutes, or if he is badly conducting a rogue from the authority of his father, or if he does not have a legitimate means of earning and living.<\/p>\n The majority of homeless children are exposed to easy and rapid instigation of criminal acts as a result of their weakness or lack of education, with weak religious beliefs and the extent of their feeling of inferiority. What makes them easy hunting for use in various types of crimes, including drug trafficking, house theft, prostitution, begging, and training them for pickpocketing. Working in the drug trade is one of the jobs in which children excel and get into work as if they are receiving training, so the child begins to work as a "nadouji" in the beginning, which is important. It fits him perfectly as a child does not arouse suspicion while he plays with his friends, after training him in the power of observation. When he suspects any stranger or notices police cars, he sounds a whistle or imitates a bird's sound or a word that children circulate quickly, so you reach the merchant to take his caution([7]<\/a>).<\/sup> \u00a0.<\/p>\n Children are also exploited in theft crimes, where they are used to their small size and rapid movement by entering the place to be stolen through a small window or a sail, and his role is limited at the beginning to open the place for the big thief and enter him, then after he is trained in the speed of movement and begins to reach places Money and jewelry after breaking drawers and doors. A terrifying future awaits him after that, in which he will turn with the passage of days into a professional thief.<\/p>\n Many homeless children are exposed to many health risks during their daily lives as they lack protection, as they often work without obtaining any kind of social insurance or even employment contracts, which puts them in most cases vulnerable to extortion and violence on the part of those who work for them or those who work for them. Public in the street, and this exposes them to many accidents and diseases. It is possible to see these children most of the time barefoot in the streets, and sometimes large parts of their bodies are bare, even in winter, and some of them stand on piles of garbage looking for food for themselves, and this exposes them to many injuries, wounds and diseases resulting from pollution. ([8]<\/a>)<\/sup> It is one of the most important diseases that children suffer from<\/p>\n Homeless children are the most vulnerable to violence and attacks of all kinds, due to their presence on the edge of society and their dependence on marginal livelihood activities such as begging, cleaning work and petty theft, which puts them in constant contact with police personnel and thus increases their exposure to violence. Children who are homeless as a result of the harsh conditions they are exposed to are in constant conflict with the law, whether as victims or witnesses, as children suspected or accused of committing a crime are often detained for various reasons such as vagrancy, begging, theft or selling drugs, and they may be detained with adult prisoners because they are not The availability of special places of detention for children in all police stations and stations, which sometimes exposes them to physical, psychological and sexual abuse by adult detainees.<\/p>\n Although the law defines the means to protect these children, there is obstinacy and arrogance on the part of some policemen, especially in confronting them, whether during their arrest by using a stick and batons to hit them while being chased, or during their drive to and from the police station or station and placing iron restrictions in their hands.<\/p>\n The third axis: the legal, constitutional and legal framework, and the state's efforts <\/strong><\/p>\n Review and international charters <\/strong><\/p>\n On 20 November 1959, the Social, Humanitarian and Cooperative Committee of the United Nations General Assembly endorsed the Universal Declaration of the Rights of the Child. Its preamble stipulated that the child could enjoy a happy childhood in which he would enjoy his natural rights and freedom, and on the other hand, it called on fathers, mothers, men, women, voluntary organizations, local authorities and national governments to recognize these rights and strive to ensure their observance through legislative and non-legislative measures that are gradually taken and in accordance with the ten principles stated in the declaration. From which we show what we are interested in in this paper: -<\/p>\n This convention constitutes the universal legal framework that aims to provide protection for the best interest of children, regardless of the circumstances, and to take appropriate measures to ensure their development in a healthy and natural manner on the physical, mental, moral and social levels, without any discrimination and in full respect for their freedom and dignity, as the agreement states in some of its provisions: -<\/p>\n This is in contrast to many other international agreements ratified by Egypt, including:<\/p>\n African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child<\/p>\n ILO Convention No. 182 Concerning the Worst Forms of Child Labor<\/p>\n Egypt was also presented with a set of recommendations that are concerned with protecting the rights of the child during its submission to the universal periodic review mechanism in Geneva 2014, and it obtained the full support of Egypt, namely<\/p>\n Strengthening measures aimed at eliminating the economic exploitation of children recommended by Serbia.<\/p>\n - To continue promoting and protecting children's rights, recommended by Armenia.<\/p>\n Intensification of efforts to combat trafficking in persons recommended by Rwanda, Slovenia, Israel, Kazakhstan, the Philippines and the Maldives.<\/p>\n The Egyptian constitution stipulated in some of its articles a set of texts related to the child, including what came in Article 11 of the second paragraph, which stipulated ([11]<\/a>)<\/sup> \u201c\u2026 The state commits to protecting women against all forms of violence, and guarantees empowering women to reconcile family duties with work requirements. It is also committed to providing care and protection for motherhood, childhood, breadwinning women, the elderly, and women most in need.<\/p>\n The constitution also stipulates in Article 80 of all rights matters relating to children, which were stipulated ([12]<\/a>)<\/sup> \u201cAnyone who has not reached the age of eighteen is considered a child. Every child has the right to a name and identification papers, free compulsory vaccination, health and family or alternative care, basic nutrition, safe shelter, religious education, emotional and cognitive development. The state guarantees the rights of children with disabilities, their rehabilitation, and their integration into society. The state is obligated to care for and protect the child from all forms of violence, abuse, ill-treatment, and sexual and commercial exploitation.<\/p>\n Every child has the right to early education in a childhood center up to the age of six, and it is prohibited to employ a child before he reaches the age of completing basic education, and it is prohibited to employ him in jobs that expose him to danger.<\/p>\n The state is also committed to establishing a special judicial system for child victims and witnesses. A child may not be held criminally responsible or detained except in accordance with the law and for the period specified therein. He shall be provided with legal aid, and his detention shall be in appropriate places separate from places of detention for adults. The state works to achieve the best interest of the child in all measures taken towards him.<\/p>\n The constitution also stipulated the formation of a council concerned with motherhood and childhood affairs, in Article 214, which stipulates: ([13]<\/a>)<\/sup> "The law defines independent national councils, including the National Council for Human Rights, the National Council for Women, and the National Council for Childhood and Motherhood, ..."<\/p>\n The Egyptian legislator has been interested in children in a number of legislations, the most important of which is Law No. 12 of 1996 known as the Child Law, amended by Law No. 126 of 2008, which concerns us here to present some of its articles related to protection from this phenomenon, the most important of which are: -<\/p>\n Article (1) ([14]<\/a>)<\/sup>The state guarantees protection of childhood and motherhood, takes care of children, and works to create appropriate conditions for their proper upbringing in all respects within a framework of freedom and human dignity.<\/p>\n The state also guarantees, as a minimum, the rights of the child contained in the Convention on the Rights of the Child and other relevant international instruments in force in Egypt.<\/p>\n Article (2) ([15]<\/a>)<\/sup>A child in the field of care stipulated in this law means everyone who has not reached the age of eighteen full years of age.<\/p>\n Article (5): Every child has the right to have a name that distinguishes him. This name shall be recorded at birth in the birth registers in accordance with the provisions of this law. It is not permissible for the name to insult or insult the dignity of the child or be contrary to religious beliefs.<\/p>\n Article (7) bis ([16]<\/a>)<\/sup>Every child has the right to obtain health and social care services and treatment of diseases, and the state shall take all measures to ensure that all children enjoy the highest possible level of health. The state guarantees providing parents, children and all sectors of society with basic information related to the health and nutrition of the child, the advantages of breastfeeding, principles of maintaining health, safety of the environment and preventing accidents, and helping to make use of this information.<\/p>\n The state also guarantees the child, in all areas, his right to a fit, healthy and clean environment, and takes all effective measures to abolish practices harmful to his health.<\/p>\n Article (7) bis (a) ([17]<\/a>)<\/sup>Taking into consideration the duties and rights of the caregivers of the child, and his right to discipline that is legally permissible, it is prohibited to intentionally subject the child to any harmful physical harm or harmful or unlawful practice.<\/p>\n The competent Child Protection Subcommittee may take legal action when the text of the previous paragraph is violated<\/p>\n Article (87): The state guarantees the fulfillment of the child's cultural needs in its various fields of literature, arts and knowledge, and linking them with the values of society within the framework of human heritage and modern scientific progress.<\/p>\n These materials are good and take great care of all children without discrimination, whether they are homeless or others.<\/p>\n Fourth Axis: Problems of treating the phenomenon <\/strong><\/p>\n The insufficient number of cadres trained in the mechanisms of dealing with homeless children, whether on the social or psychological level, they are trained at a high level, and it is necessary to deal with street children through the experiences of these children and the language recognized among them, which leads to the loss of children's confidence in them and their lack of acceptance of the materials provided to them Coaches.<\/p>\n The fifth axis: the proposed solutions <\/strong><\/p>\n Undoubtedly, we suffer in Egypt from the failure to implement laws and legislations, which will bear fruit in eliminating this phenomenon, in addition to the fact that we believe that some articles in the Child Law must be amended, namely: -<\/p>\n [1]<\/a> Interview with Brigadier General Khaled Abdel Aziz, Director of Juvenile Welfare Investigation Department in Al-Youm Al-Sabea Newspaper in 2014\u00a0 http:\/\/www.youm7.com\/1655713<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [2]<\/a> - According to the official count announced by the Ministry of Social Solidarity in January 2015 http:\/\/bit.ly\/2lUi7uq<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [3]<\/a> - According to what is published on the Cairo Gate website http:\/\/bit.ly\/2kWdTm0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [4]<\/a> According to what has been published in a number of Egyptian news websites, including Al-Fajr http:\/\/www.elfagr.org\/1712349<\/a>\u00a0 And Al-Shorouk newspaper website http:\/\/bit.ly\/2m7oWYD<\/a> And the BBC website http:\/\/bbc.in\/2lHxD8B<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [5]<\/a> Nisf Al Dunya Magazine is issued by Al-Ahram House for Printing and Publishing http:\/\/bit.ly\/2lO2IM4<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [6]<\/a> - Alternative site http:\/\/bit.ly\/2lJ5rWP<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [7]<\/a> - Published article entitled Children Lost in the Street http:\/\/bit.ly\/2m5llst<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [8]<\/a> - The phenomenon of street children, causes, characteristics, treatment, Sawsan Shaker Majeed, The Civilized Dialogue, Issue 3713, http:\/\/bit.ly\/2lt3qND<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [9]<\/a> University of Minnesota, Human Rights Writers, Child Rights Declaration, http:\/\/hrlibrary.umn.edu\/arab\/b025.html<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [10]<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [11]<\/a> Full text of the article http:\/\/dostour.eg\/2013\/topics\/basic-components\/state-15-4\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [12]<\/a> - The entire article is Ali http:\/\/dostour.eg\/2013\/topics\/rights-freedoms\/rights-duties-42-3\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [13]<\/a> - The entire article is Ali http:\/\/dostour.eg\/2013\/topics\/regime\/national-1-1\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [14]<\/a> - The last paragraph was added to Law No. 126 of 2008.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/a>(2) - Two replaced by Law No. 126 of 2008.<\/span><\/p>\n [16]<\/a> Added by Law No. 126 of 2008.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/a>\u00a0(1) and (2) are added to Law No. 126 of 2008.<\/span><\/p>\n [18]<\/a> - Article 96, paragraph 14\u00a0 http:\/\/bit.ly\/2lja5qm<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [19]<\/a> Same as the previous sourcehttp:\/\/bit.ly\/2lja5qm<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [20]<\/a> - The same source http:\/\/bit.ly\/2lja5qm<\/a><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Homeless Children - A New Vision of Cure Al Dhahirah A policy paper issued by the \u201cPublic Policy Analysis and Human Rights Unit\u201d of the Maat Foundation for Peace, Development and Human Rights within the framework of the \u201cUniversal Periodic Review as a Tool for Improving Public Policies during the Transition Period\u201d \u201cThis publication was implemented with the help of the European Union.
