Abstract

Human rights norms will largely remain hollow if they are not translated into the lived realities of people on the ground. Given the diversity and complexities of human rights norms, the arrays of institutions, mechanisms and resource required to give full effect to these norms, implementation of human rights norms is a continuous and progressive undertaking. Progress, to be meaningful, should have milestones and mechanisms for tracking it. The reporting mechanisms are human rights’ monitoring and evaluation plans and systems to track progressive implementation. This book provides an assessment of the reporting mechanisms of child rights treaty bodies. It highlights what is working or not working and why, making recommendations for further improvement of the reporting mechanism to better work for children in Africa. The findings and recommendations in the book are based on a study commissioned by the Centre for Human Rights, to assess the effects of reporting to United Nations and African Union child rights treaty bodies on the enjoyment of rights, protection and welfare of children in Africa. It covers 17 African countries, and provides a historical snapshot of the situation as at the end of 2017.

A Handbook of Children and Young People's Participation brings together key thinkers and practitioners from diverse contexts across the globe to provide an authoritative overview of contemporary theory and practice around children's participation.

Abstract

Die Studie befasst sich mit der rechtlichen Gestaltung einer kindorientierten Familienpolitik in vier europäischen Ländern mit unterschiedlichen sozialstaatlichen Arrangements. Ziel ist es, das Spektrum an Maßnahmen und Interventionen zur Gewährleistung des Rechtes von Kindern auf materielle Ressourcen und kindgerechte Betreuung systematisch zu erfassen und die Komplexität der "Leistungen für Kinder" im Spannungsfeld öffentlicher und privater Verantwortung aufzuzeigen: Wie wird das Recht des Kindes auf Unterhalt und Betreuung geschützt, wie und weshalb soll der Staat Eltern in ihren Elternfunktionen unterstützen? Wie wirken sich Grundprinzipien wie die Gleichstellung aller Kinder unabhängig von ihrem Geburtsstatus auf sozialrechtliche Leistungen aus? Die vier Länderstudien analysieren Unterschiede und zunehmende Gemeinsamkeiten hinsichtlich der Begründung einer öffentlichen Verantwortung für die junge Generation. Die vergleichende Auswertung stützt sich auch auf gemeinsame europäische und internationale normative Vorgaben.   Reihe Studien aus dem Max-Planck-Institut für Sozialrecht und Sozialpolitik - Band 61.

Abstract

The book contains contributions from thirteen distinguished moral and political philosophers on the subject of children. These are new essays and are devoted to a subject that until recently has not been extensively discussed by philosophers. Too often philosophers restrict themselves to the consideration only of the relations between adults. Yet the topic of children is an important one for moral and political philosophy. Recent years have seen an increased concern with the needsand interests of young people. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child which accords a wide range

Abstract

The system of the United Nations, as well as many international and regional bodies, imposes various duties on states that consequently have obligations towards the rights of their individuals. This is particularly significant in the case of children who
