Abstract

The Center for the Human Rights of Children, in collaboration with Kids in Need of Defense, the Women’s Refugee Commission and the Young Center for Immigrant Children’s Rights, submits this input in response to the call for submissions made by the Special Rapporteur on Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment to inform the Special Rapporteur’s forthcoming thematic report to the Human Rights Council at its 49th Session in March 2022. This input will focus specifically on the U.S. government’s (USG) implementation of forced parent- child separation under the Trump Administration’s Zero Tolerance policy.
