Abstract:  
The legal system of Iran has not been fully successful in protecting minimum rights of children and youth; and has faced some obstacles in complying with international standards. Different laws and regulations have been introduced in domestic legal system to protect children rights and furthermore, Iran has acceded to different conventions on children’s rights. As standards of protection are different in domestic legal system and those set forth in international conventions, this article aims answering this question that how international conventions can be implemented by national courts? This article also examines existing challenges in protecting children’s rights in Iran.
