| Summary |
"Thirty years ago, the adoption of the United Nations Convention of the Rights of the Child (crc) reaffirmed children as rights- holders and the existence of children's rights as a particular set of human rights. The crc represents a comprehensive child law perspective and can, as such, serve as a model for countries aspiring towards a genuine child- rights- approach in their national constitutional law. However, the crc does not entail an obligation to provide constitutional protection of children's rights. It mandates only appropriate legislative and administrative protection supplemented by other measures implementing the rights enshrined in it"-- Provided by publisher. |
