National Plan of Action 15. The Committee welcomes the adoption of the National Plan of Action for the Protection of Children’s Rights in Armenia and underlines the importance of establishing mechanisms for its effective implementation and monitoring. 16. The Committee recommends that the State party ensure that the National Plan of Action covers all areas of the Convention and takes into account the outcome document, “A World Fit for Children”, of the 2002 United Nations General Assembly special session on children, and that the National Resource Centre on Children’s Rights, charged with promoting and monitoring the implementation of the National Plan of Action for the Protection of Children’s Rights, is made functional as soon as possible and allocated sufficient human and financial resources to fulfil its mandate.

The Committee reiterates its recommendation that the State party develop ways to establish a systematic assessment of the impact of budgetary allocations on the implementation of rights of the child and to collect and disseminate information in this regard. The Committee recommends that the State party ensure the adequate distribution of resources at the national and local levels and prioritize budgetary allocations with a view to implementing fully article 4 of the Convention, ensuring the economic, social and cultural rights of children, in particular those belonging to economically disadvantaged groups, “to the maximum extent of … available resources and, where needed, within the framework of international cooperation”. Training/dissemination of the Convention 19. The Committee reiterates its concern about the low level of awareness of the Convention amongst the general public, including children, and professionals working with children. While recognizing that efforts have been made over the last years to enhance awareness of the Convention, the Committee is concerned that such awareness-raising activities are not done in a systematic and targeted manner. 20. The Committee reiterates its recommendation that the State party develop an ongoing programme for the dissemination of information on the Convention and its implementation. The Committee also encourages the State party to pursue efforts to promote education on children’s rights in the country and to develop systematic and ongoing training programmes on the provisions of the Convention for all professional groups working with children (i.e. judges, lawyers, law enforcement officials, civil servants,
