"The submissions should relate to the situation of human rights of the following categories of children (people under the age of 18) in the context of migration:


Children that migrate with their parents who are migrant workers;

Children that are born to parents who are migrant workers in transit and destination countries;

Migrant children that return to their country of origin, either voluntarily or by force, alone or with their parents;

Children left behind by their parents (or one of them) who have migrated to another country and

Children that migrate unaccompanied and separated from their parents (for reasons such as seeking employment, family reunification or as victims of trafficking, labour exploitation and child labour)."
