About

Children's rights is an interdisciplinary academic field and concept examining the legal, ethical, and social entitlements and protections afforded to individuals under the age of majority. It investigates the theoretical foundations, international and domestic legal frameworks, implementation challenges, and social realities impacting the well-being, development, protection, and participation of children, drawing upon perspectives from law, sociology, psychology, ethics, and political science. Its significance lies in informing policy, advocacy, legal practice, and empirical research dedicated to realizing the full spectrum of rights for all children.
