Kinderrechte in Namibia

Hg. von Oliver C Ruppel

Auch verfügbar in English

Am 20.11.1989 hat die die Generalversammlung der Vereinten Nationen die Kinderrechtskonvention angenommen. Inzwischen haben 193 Staaten die Konvention unterzeichnet und damit ihre Verantwortung für Kinder und den Schutz von deren unveräusserlichen Rechten auf Überleben, Entwicklung, Schutz und Beteiligung anerkannt. Am 20.11.2009 legt die KAS eine umfassende Publikation vor, die den Stand und die Entwicklung von Kinderrechten in Namibia aus verschiedenen Perspektiven analysiert.
