Children have the right to a non-violent upbringing, to guidance and positive reinforcement.
Work devoted to children
Prof. dr. sc. Gordana Buljan Flander, Director of the Child Protection Center of Zagreb has been working with children for thirty years of her career. As a child psychologist of Children’s Hospital Zagreb, she often worked with abused and neglected children who had not had the necessary protection from adults. This is the reason why she was among the first professionals in Croatia to recognise the issue of child abuse and neglect and to devote her further work to that issue.
