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.

Описание: Fawaz Gruosi, the inspired visionary behind Swiss jeweler de Grisogono, instinctively understands his craft. His dynamic creativity and nonconformist approach have been rejuvenating the conventions of jewelry since the brand was established in 1993 with a boutique on Geneva's rue du Rh ne, where he eschewed the minimalism characteristic of the decade in favor of rich, sensual, ornate pieces. De Grisogono's first creation was a bespoke pair of pearl and diamond earrings for the Begum Salima Aga Khan, who epitomized the luxury and exclusivity that would come to define the jeweler. Since then, influential women such as Sophia Loren, Duchess Camilla of Cornwall, and Sharon Stone have donned Gruosi's glittering designs, which explore black and white diamonds, uniquely colored stones, and innovative yet classic form. But de Grisogono is about so much more: its opulent mix of Florentine and Byzantine influences, its striking gem combinations, and Gruosi's unsurpassed handcraftsmanship make it singular in the jewelry world, as the arresting images in this luxury volume attest.
