Advocates within the growing field of childrens rights have designed dynamic campaigns to protect and promote childrens rights. This expanding body of international law and jurisprudence, however, lacks a core text that provides an up-to-date look at current childrens rights issues, the evolution of childrens rights law, and the efficacy of efforts to protect children.
Campaigning for Children focuses on contemporary childrens rights, identifying the range of abuses that affect children today, including early marriage, female genital mutilation, child labor, child sex tourism, corporal punishment, the impact of armed conflict, and access to education. Jo Becker traces the last 25 years of the childrens rights movement, including the evolution of international laws and standards to protect children from abuse and exploitation. From a practitioners perspective, Becker provides readers with careful case studies of the organizations and campaigns that are making a difference in the lives of children, and the relevant strategies that have been successful—or not. By presenting a variety of approaches to deal with each issue, this book carefully teases out broader lessons for effective social change in the field of childrens rights.
