Abstract

This study is an analytical descriptive study to identify mechanisms used by the NGO network in supporting and promoting children's cultural rights. It also aims to identify the efforts of the NGO Network in supporting children's cultural rights through the vision of children themselves. The study used the social survey methodology. A complete census with board members and social workers of the NGO network reached (54) individuals. The methodology, a purposive sample with the beneficiary children of the NGO network, aged between (15-18) years, reached (48) children. The study relied on two tools to answer the questions of the study; a questionnaire with members of the board of directors and social workers; and a semi-structured interview with the children. The results of the study identified the most important mechanisms needed for supporting the cultural rights of children as being the establishment of a database, and improved communication between the organization network members in order to form technical committees, including experts and specialists, for developing children's cultural abilities. The most important efforts of the NGO network from the point of view of children were to support the rights of the child in forming his views by engaging him in the cultural and sports club, and promoting children's religious rights through Holy Quran memorization halls. The main obstacle facing the NGO network was the low number of trained social workers in the field of childcare. The study suggested increasing financial allocations by member organizations in order to support the child's cultural rights network, and developing databases in the NGO network to identify the cultural needs of children.
