This journal focuses on the legal and practical application of children's rights as established by international conventions, particularly the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Articles examine how these rights are implemented, interpreted, and sometimes violated across various national and international contexts, including social welfare, education, migration, and responses to global challenges like climate change and technological advancements. The journal also explores the participation of children in decision-making processes and the specific rights of vulnerable groups of children.
