Abstract	"The author critically examines the EU's role as an international children's rights actor. The promotion of children's rights as enshrined in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) is a key objective of EU external policy. This contribution assesses the effectiveness of external action of the EU aimed at upholding children's rights. These rights have emerged as an entrenched EU accession condition and the EU has also attempted to address children's rights violation via the employment of thematic programs part of the EU development and democratization policies. Nevertheless, according to the author, EU policy on children's rights has faced various shortcomings that are further described in the chapter. Despite these drawbacks the EU has emerged as a compelling international children's rights actor." (author's abstract).
