  "abstract": "Human rights are basic fundamental rights and freedoms essential to preserving human dignity, and are recognized as prerequisites for peace, justice, and democracy. The current study aims to analyze the profile of human rights violations against children and adolescents in Brazil. A cross-sectional, exploratory, retrospective, and quantitative study was conducted using records available from the National Human Rights Office (ONDH) between January and September 2025. According to ONDH, violations of children’s rights account for 47.8% of complaints and 40.07% of registered violations, with an average of 828 complaints and 4,958 violations per day. During that period, 207,006 complaints and 1,239,502 violations were registered, with a ratio of six violations per complaint. Violations of personal integrity were identified in 98.74% of complaints; violations of liberty were present in 15.6%, failure to fulfill social rights in 6%, and 0.4% of reports involved attacks on life. Regarding the location of the violations, 71.6% occurred in a home shared by the victim and the suspect, 11.86% in the victim’s home, 4.7% in the suspect’s home, and 4.1% in educational institutions. In terms of frequency, 76.57% of the violations occurred daily, 7.8% weekly, and 4.4% occasionally. It is concluded that fundamental rights violations continue to be significantly present, with incalculable individual and social harm.",
