Regional Capacity Building Workshop on Advocacy for Realising Child Rights

Submitted by crinadmin on Wed, 08/03/2006 - 09:31

Summary: This report focuses on three main areas for advocacy: gender-based violence, physical and psychological punishment and children's education in emergencies, especially in floods.

This report recognises the importance of three aspects of the rights-based approach:

(a) Understanding the importance of connecting the issue and initiative with the particular organisation's life cycle.

(b) Recognising that the rights-based approach must be directly related to social movement building.

(c) Having no illusions about the need to change power relations
