This practically-focussed two day course places in perspective international human rights law as it affects children. At the end of the two days participants will have comprehensive information on the international framework to guarantee the rights of the child.
It is nearly twenty-five years since the groundbreaking UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) came into force, resulting in an exponential growth in child-related law and policy, both on the international and domestic levels.
International human rights law now informs all elements of UK strategy and policy as it relates to children. Childcare professionals, including lawyers and those directly working with and for children must therefore understand and be able to apply the international human rights law framework relating to children and young people.
Participants will become more aware of how human rights law must inform law, policy and practice as it affects children, but as importantly the course will illustrate the need for future developments need to take child rights into account. |
