Child Rights

Child Rights is a normative framework within the field of child policy that specifies the inherent entitlements and protections owed to individuals under the age of 18 by virtue of their developmental vulnerability and legal minority status, distinguishing it from broader human rights through its emphasis on dependency, state obligation, and the principle of the best interests of the child.
