On August 24, 2023, in a significant step towards safeguarding the rights of children in Poland, Deputy Minister Marcin Romanowski met with representatives from Save the Children Poland at the Ministry of Justice.

The dialogue touched upon the evolving landscape of children's rights in the country, and how related regulations have changed over recent years. A central point of discussion was the possible implications of the newly introduced Kamilek Act, designed to strengthen the protection of minors in Poland. The meeting was also an opportunity to explore prospects for future collaboration, focusing on the exchange of best practices in child protection.

Deputy Minister Romanowski emphasized that the adoption of the Kamilek Act is a major, but not the last step in the fight against violence against children. The Ministry also restated its commitment to further fortify legislative practices in this area. International cooperation, particularly with international non-governmental organizations (INGOs), was highlighted as crucial to sharing successful approaches. Moreover, the Ministry expressed interest in promoting coordination with organizations and in providing informational support for those working with child protection.

This promising collaboration between the Ministry of Justice and Save the Children Poland underscores their shared dedication to ensuring the wellbeing of all children in the country.
