The Committee also recommends the multiplication of daycare centers for early childhood (mentioned in the Report) in zones where girls are forced to stay at home to look after the younger children. Section 4: BEST INTERESTS OF THE CHILD The Committee notes with satisfaction the recognition of the right to participation of children, in particular, in the field of juvenile justice, by the Government of the Republic of Uganda. However, it regrets that this right is not clearly recognized in the national legal instruments. This poses some problems when taking into account the best interests of the child and for the children to become more engaged on issues affecting their survival and development. The Committee recommends the State party to pursue the activities of GEM clubs and the Sara Initiative; it encourages the promotion of the manual designed in synergy by the Government, UNICEF, the civil society, in favor of children, on the participation of children, with the establishment of a child representative leadership. Article 6: NAME AND NATIONALITY Even though article 18 of the Ugandan Constitution provides for the registration of births, the Committee finds that the rate of births and deaths declarations is low. The Committee recommends the State party to ensure that registration of children at birth is mandatory and free. The Committee also urges the Government to raise the awareness of local authorities and populations about the future consequences of the non registration of children on the civil status registry. The Committee further urges the Government to include the registration of births and deaths, if it has not already done so, in the Investment Plan, the budgets of the Justice and Law Enforcement Sectors, as wished for by the Recommendations of the review of the justice sector. Section 7: FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION The right to participation requires the actual presence and hearing of the children. The committee notes significant progress made by the Government in the area of the right to expression, which could have been otherwise presented in section 4-2 of the Report, through weekly columns specially reserved for children and children programs by children. The Committee encourages the "Young Talk" (young people talk) and recommends the continuation of the facilities granted to children in terms of access to media freedom of speech, right of access to information, which are rights provided in the constitution and which allow children to express their points of view, outside the family boundaries. 3
