This report of the Interagency Panel on Juvenile Justice (IPJJ) side-event on "Juvenile Justice Challenges: Strategies to Address Violence against Children in Contact with the Justice System" was published in March 2009. The document provides a summary of the presentations given by the five panellists and a brief outline of the questions from the floor, answers provided by the panellists and concluding remarks.
