CRC/C/15/Add.231 page 5 21. The Committee recommends that the State party: (a) Strengthen public awareness campaigns for the general public and children on the Convention and, in particular, the fact that children are the subject of rights; (b) Continue to carry out systematic education and training on the principles and provisions of the Convention for all persons working with and for children, in particular, teachers, judges, lawyers, parliamentarians, law enforcement officials, civil servants, municipal workers, personnel working in institutions and places of detention for children, health personnel, including psychologists, and social workers; (c) Evaluate the impact of awareness-raising campaigns, training and education programmes on attitudinal change, behaviour and the treatment of children; (d) Include human rights education, and specifically child rights education, in the school curriculum. 2. Definition of the child 22. The Committee is concerned that the minimum age of marriage is still different for boys (18) than girls (16) and that the minimum age of sexual consent (13 years) is low. 23. The Committee recommends that the State party: (a) Raise the minimum age of marriage for girls to that of boys; (b) Raise the minimum age of sexual consent. 3. General principles Non-discrimination 24. The Committee is concerned that legislation discriminates against children born out of wedlock and that societal discrimination persists against girls, children with disabilities, Amerasian, Korean, Buraku and Ainu children and other minority groups, and children of migrant workers. 25. The Committee recommends that the State party amend its legislation in order to eliminate any discrimination against children born out of wedlock, in particular, with regard to inheritance and citizenship rights and birth registration, as well as discriminatory terminology such as “illegitimate” from legislation and regulations. The Committee recommends that the State party undertake all necessary proactive measures to combat societal discrimination and ensure access to basic services, in particular, for girls, children with disabilities, Amerasians, Koreans, Buraka, Ainu and other minorities, children of migrant workers and refugee and asylum-seeking children, through, inter alia, public education and awareness campaigns.
