Children and the law

CWC’s advocacy at the level of policy and legislation is strongly rooted in our extensive field experiences. Insights and concepts emerging from our field programmes direct and inform our advocacy programme on children’s rights. This advocacy is both broad and deep, covering topics from juvenile justice to child labour. Some of the key advocacy interventions where CWC ha collaborated with children and other partners are detailed in the following pages.

Juvenile Justice system

UN Convention on Rights of the Child


  • When you look into a child’s eyes you expect to see hope, trust and innocence; but when you see these signs of childhood are replaced by betrayal, hunger, fear & suspicion, we need to take a serious stock of ourselves and the society we have created.
