This article presents a tentative analysis of 30 years of academic research in the field of children's rights and migration (1989-2019). Much research has addressed the plight of unaccompanied, ...refugee and asylum-seeking children, trying better to link children's rights considerations with international refugee law. Many publications address the best interests of the child principle and the right to be heard. Most research focuses on (migration towards) Europe. This has led to an increased visibility and recognition of children's rights in the context of migration.
However, there are still various blind spots in the research reviewed. Most research focuses on some children, but not all (e.g., accompanied children), on some rights, but not all (e.g., economic, social and cultural rights), and on some types of migration, but not all (e.g., economic migration). Moreover, refugee and migrant children tend to be studied as a group, which risks reducing attention for their internal diversity.
This study explores whether and how enshrining children’s rights in national constitutions improves implementation and enforcement of those rights by comparing Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Norwegian ...and Swedish law.
The responsibility for protecting children in the digital environment is perceived to be that of parents who are provided with multiple guidelines for monitoring children's screen time and online ...use. The societal understanding that parents are responsible for supervising- and controlling- their children's online behaviour is clear. As a result, studies have tended to focus on parents' digital literacy in relation to these policing and managing responsibilities. A growing body of research, however, has examined parents' behaviour creating their own digital narratives using personal information and photographs of their children through 'sharenting'. This paper contrasts parents' digital literacy as publishers of personal information and narratives with their designated role in policing and managing their children's media use. Parental power in this context inevitably extends to the control of their children's privacy, however our study indicates breaches of children's privacy by 'sharenting' practices is frequently not recognised or fully understood by parents.

How can human rights for children born outside their national jurisdiction with parents deemed as terrorists be safeguarded? In what ways do children risk being discriminated in their welfare rights ...in Sweden when treated as invisible part of a family? How can we do research on children’s rights in not just ethically sensitive ways but also with respect for children as rights subjects? And what could be a theory on social justice for children? These are questions discussed in studies from different disciplines concerning children’s international human rights, with a special focus on the realization of the CRC in Sweden.
"EPDF and EPUB available Open Access under CC-BY-NC-ND. This book explores how children’s rights are practised and weighed against parents’ rights in a range of countries, and examines how ...governments and legal and welfare professionals balance those rights in the challenging circumstances following the decision that children cannot grow up in their parents’ care. Looking at adoption from care in Europe and the United States, it provides in-depth analysis of concepts of family, contact, the child’s best interest principle and human rights in adoption from care across these different socio-political and legal contexts. Taking an international comparative approach to these issues, this book provides best practice evidence on adoption processes and shares learning across country boundaries to help improve outcomes for all adopted children."
The relationship between teachers and students in educational institutions is regulated by various laws and regulations that contribute to a more efficient implementation of educational processes for ...the active participation of students. The development and affirmation of children's rights also contribute to creating a creative and challenging environment in schools. Thus, a motivating environment is created, in which students are encouraged for further development and learning. This research aimed to establish to what extent the attitudes of teachers regarding the children's rights of students in secondary schools in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia have been developed and to examine whether there are different perceptions of children's rights in the countries covered by the research. The sample included 112 teachers from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, of which 72 were from Bosnia and Herzegovina and 40 from Croatia. The instrument that was used in the research is a modified questionnaire from the published research, "Attitudes of teachers and students of the music school on respecting the participatory rights of students in the teaching of playing a musical instrument", author Assoc. Ph.D. prof. advisor, Davor Brđanović. Data analysis was performed using the SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) computer program. Descriptive and inferential statistical procedures were used in the processing of the obtained results: descriptive indicators of central tendency and dispersion, as well as procedures for determining the connection between variables (depending on the shape of the determining distributions, Pearson's or Spearman's correlation coefficient) and differences between groups (depending on the shape of the determining distributions, t-test, and F-test or Mann-Whitney U-test). The results indicate a dominant homogeneity in the domain of responses of teaching staff from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia regarding the respect of children's rights in class, which may be conditioned by the similar development starting points of the educational systems in the two mentioned countries. Analyzing the results of knowledge of special children's rights and knowledge of documents that protect children's rights, serious deficits were observed that indicate insufficient education of the sample - teaching staff in the schools and countries included in this research.
En el año 2020, se cumplieron tres décadas de la entrada en vigor de la Convención de Naciones Unidas sobre los Derechos del Niño, el tratado internacional de Derechos humanos más universal de la ...historia, con 196 Estados Parte. Para la conmemoración de este aniversario, el Grupo de Derecho Europeo de la Universidad de Oviedo (EURODERUNIOVI) organizó, los días 5 y 6 de marzo del 2020, una Jornada en la Facultad de Derecho de Oviedo sobre el “30 Aniversario de la Convención sobre los Derechos del Niño: logros y retos desde una perspectiva multidisciplinar", con el objetivo de reflexionar y debatir sobre los logros conseguidos y los retos pendientes en la defensa y promoción de los derechos de la infancia. La presente obra colectiva recoge las ponencias y comunicaciones presentadas en las citadas Jornadas, tratando de dar una mayor difusión y visibilidad a la importancia que ha tenido la adhesión de España a esta Convención en nuestro sistema de protección a la infancia para garantizar que todos los niños gocen de sus derechos sin distinción alguna. El tratamiento se aborda desde cinco ejes específicos: la perspectiva histórica del tratamiento de la infancia; la perspectiva de la protección socio-laboral y educativa del niño; la perspectiva de la protección de la dimensión privada del niño; la perspectiva penal de la protección jurídica del niño y en último lugar, la perspectiva internacional y el balance de la protección internacional del niño.
This paper examines the lived experiences of children who interacted with tourists in a performance-based orphanage in Siem Reap, Cambodia. The orphanage was perceived by poor Cambodians as the only ...opportunity for their children to access food and education and a place to care for children when parents migrated for work. In recent years, however, orphanages in the majority world have come under increasing international pressure because many are associated with children's rights abuses. As a result, the Cambodian Government committed to closing many orphanages and reintegrating 30 per cent of institutionalised children back into their family's care. The children's narratives were collected through child-focused participatory research. The findings provide a deeper understanding of the children's lives, their aspirations and the extent to which the orphanage provided for their rights and human development. The findings are pertinent for other communities and organisations advocating children's rights-based development and educational initiatives.
Purpose: The aim of this study is to examine the reconstruction of Religious Court decision execution on the fulfilment of children’s rights post-divorce in Indonesia. Theoretical Framework: This ...research is based on the postulate that court decisions ideally aimed to guarantee justice and legal certainty for the parties, but in reality, not all judge’s decisions can be implemented as well. This can be seen in the implementation of religious court decisions in Indonesia regarding children's maintenance rights post-divorce. Design/Methodology/Approach: This research uses a juridical-normative method. The sources and techniques of data collection were obtained from documentation studies, literature, and interviews with informants. The data analysis technique uses a deductive approach to formulate a conclusion. Findings: The results of this research show that on the one hand, the regulation of the father's obligations towards child support post-divorce in the judge's decision at the Religious Courts refers more to the positive laws that implemented in Indonesia. On the other hand, positive law in Indonesia has not yet effective in regulating the execution of judges' decisions regarding the children's rights post-divorce because it is only voluntary and lacks coercive power. Research, Practical & Social Implications: As the implication of the research, family law in Indonesia needs to be reconstructed through conducting special regulations regarding the execution mechanism regarding the fulfillment of children's rights post-divorce to be more regulatory, binding, and coercive. Originality/Value: The value of the research originality became an explanatory method for the conceptual development of the reconstruction of Religious Court decision execution on the fulfilment of children’s rights post-divorce in Indonesia.
Esta investigación se basa en el postulado de que las decisiones judiciales idealmente apuntaban a garantizar justicia y seguridad jurídica para las partes, pero en realidad no todas las decisiones de los jueces pueden implementarse también. Esto se puede ver en la implementación de decisiones de los tribunales religiosos en Indonesia con respecto a los derechos de manutención de los niños después del divorcio. Esta investigación utiliza un método jurídico-normativo. Las fuentes y técnicas de recolección de datos se obtuvieron de estudios de documentación, literatura y entrevistas con informantes. La técnica de análisis de datos utiliza un enfoque deductivo para formular una conclusión. Los resultados de esta investigación muestran que, por un lado, la regulación de las obligaciones del padre con respecto a la manutención de los hijos después del divorcio en la decisión del juez de los tribunales religiosos se refiere más a las leyes positivas que se implementaron en Indonesia. Por otro lado, el derecho positivo en Indonesia aún no ha sido eficaz para regular la ejecución de las decisiones de los jueces sobre los derechos de los niños después del divorcio porque es sólo voluntario y carece de poder coercitivo. Como implica la investigación, el derecho de familia en Indonesia debe reconstruirse mediante la implementación de regulaciones especiales sobre el mecanismo de ejecución relacionado con el cumplimiento de los derechos de los niños después del divorcio para que sea más regulatorio, vinculante y coercitivo.

Child Labor is a serious problem that has attracted national and international public attention. The purpose of writing this article is to analyze in depth the review of the fulfillment of child ...Labor rights based on maqashid sharia. This article's research method uses a type of normative legal research using secondary data obtained through literature study. The collected data was then analyzed descriptively qualitatively using a conceptual approach, namely the concept of maqashid sharia. The results and findings in this article are that Islam places the fulfillment of children's rights as an important thing to realize. The general aim of Allah SWT in sending down the Shari'a is to bring about benefits. The basic concept of benefit is realizing benefits and preventing harm. The practice of child Labor is prohibited, because it conflicts with the five main principles of maqashid sharia, namely the protection of religion, soul, mind, property and descendant, which are primary needs (dharuriyyah) that must be fulfilled in humans. The priority of a child's age is to fulfill the rights of religion, soul, reason and heredity rather than fulfilling the need for wealth.
