Author: Crime Victim Conmensation and Support Authority, Sweden Title: Child Victims in the Union - Rights and Empowerment CURE. A report of the CURE Project 2009-2010 Summary: Child victims in the Union – Rights and Empowerment, CURE, has been a project on the situation of victimised children in the criminal justice system. It has had the ultimate aim to provide recommendations for an improved position of child victims in the European Union. The CURE project was initiated and run by the Crime Victim Compensation and Support Authority in Sweden during 2009-2010. Child victims are identified as a vulnerable group of victims in the legislation of many Member States. Over the last couple of years, the legislative activity on issues related to certain groups of child victims and witnesses has been high. This has led to the establishment of a number of procedural safeguards aimed to protect the child victim from hardship in the criminal justice process. These are primarily concerned with how the child victim is interviewed and with ways to avoid that the child victim is confronted with the suspect. The CURE project concludes that criminal justice policies do not provide sufficient holistic support for child victims as called for in the UN Guidelines on Justice in Matters involving Child Victims and Witnesses of Crime. Improving the circumstances of child victims in the justice system requires binding legislation and mechanisms which cater to the specific needs of children.
