A Law Review: South Africa's progress in realising children's rights

Posted on April 09, 2014

To realise rights, the state needs to design and implement a range of measures which include strategic plans, policies, laws, programmes, budgets and services. These measures together make up the state's overall plan for the realisation of children's rights.

This book focuses on a selection of laws and examines whether they have been designed and are being implemented in compliance with international and constitutional law. Where design flaws or implementation challenges are identified, the authors make recommendationd for reform.

The Centre for Child Law's Morgan Courtenay and Zita Hansungule wrote chapter 7 that deals with protecting the rights of children in conflict with the law and reviewed South Africa's Child Justice Act.
