Children remain among the most vulnerable members of society, and the responsibility of protecting their rights requires ongoing intellectual, legal, religious, cultural and social engagement. Since the adoption of the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child (ACRWC) in 1990, African states have made significant progress in developing legal frameworks and mechanisms protecting children. However, emerging challenges and deep-rooted structural issues continue to hinder the full realisation of children’s rights across Africa. Thinking Children’s Rights in Africa: Emerging Issues is a response to this reality. It is a multidisciplinary volume that brings together a wide range of voices – academics, practitioners, philosophers, theologians, social workers, and child rights advocates – to reflect on the progress, contradictions, and persistent gaps in Africa’s child protection landscape.
