disagree  Simon Harris: Sorry, Taña but I'm pretty sure colectivos refers to infants/children and young people

  -> Simon, you may be right, but in my experience I have always heard of the collective rights with the framework of the CRC. Let us see what others have to say.
agree  Lydia De Jorge: Without a doubt! The children are the holders of collective rights!
53 mins
  -> Thank you Ly. Much appreciated. Perhaps I am still reading this incorrectly, but it is the children and youth who are the right-holders. Un abrazo.
agree  Audra deFalco (X)

  -> Thank you so much sognatrice. Very kind of you.
agree  Richard Boulter: While Rebecca's suggestion is well taken, I think in this context we need to include the terms 'collective/group' or similar. Her wording as '(collective) rights holders' flows much better in the target sentence that I visualize for this Query, though.
22 hrs
  -> Thank you Richard. I agree with Rebecca's suggestion but the wording has to be carefully constructed to avoid ambiguity; I believe Simon misunderstood what I was trying to say; the CRC has been around for years and speaks to youth/child as right-holders.
