Legal Protection of Orphans from child abuse in children`s residential institutions in Kyrgyzstan

Abstract

This thesis is centered on question: Whether the Kyrgyzstan fulfils all the obligations on protection of orphans from child abuse in children`s residential institutions. While there is much research on child abuse in many countries, similar research in Kyrgyzstan is in its beginning phases. Child abuse has become a major issue that can no longer be ignored. It has been happening all over the world to many children, but many of these things are kept hidden, because the children are too scared to speak on these issues at children`s institutions. In this paper I intend to explain the forms of child abuse in detail, also it will show the analysis and conclusion of the survey on child abuse in children`s institutions, that was conducted through the monitoring by international and nongovernmental organizations. As a result, having studied the issue on child abuse in our country, it can be concluded that we have many gaps in law system and law enforcement system, which in turn lead to violence in children`s residential institutions.
