EURONET, The European Children's Network,is a coalition of networks and organisations campaigning for the interests and rights of children. They share a common concern that children's rights should be taken into account in theEU legislation, policies and programmes which have in any way an impact on children's rights.
EURONET started a lobby to ensure that children rights remain visible in the EU negotiations. For this reason letters were written to ministers and members of the European Parliament. As a result of this lobby the protection of the rights of the child has been mentioned in the objectives of the EU.
