#EASO defines age assessment as the process by which authorities seek to estimate the chronological age or range of age of a person in order to establish whether an individual is a #child or an adult.
To support the authorities in the development of reliable and rights-compliant age assessments, EASO has produced this video, which underlines the importance of observing the best interests of the child while assessing their age.
For more information, you can consult the EASO Practical Guide on age assessment available here: www.easo.europa.eu/practical-tools.
