The European Network of Ombudsmen for Children (ENOC) was set up in 1997 in Norway.
The Ombudsman of the Republic of Slovenia has been a member of the ENOC since 2002.
The goal of the countries included in the ENOC is to implement the contents of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, to raise public awareness of children's rights and to make additional efforts to implement the contents of the Convention in the legal regulations of individual countries.
Within the ENOC, members exchange data, approaches, strategies and results of comparative analyzes, and also offer assistance to individual offices in creating or increasing autonomy in decision-making and operation in the home country.
ENOC members are autonomous and
- supervise the work of government departments, bodies and ministries
- investigate complex issues (child trafficking, violence)
- encourage relevant research,
- participate in decisions that affect the rights and well-being of children.
