Independent children's rights institutions (ICRIs) have been
established across the world. Endorsed by the UN, they are
independent of their governments and endowed with legal powers. Yet
we know little about how ICRIs function. How do they work? What
impacts their success? What objectives do ICRIs seek to achieve?
The contributors to this edited collection provide first-hand
experiences in directing, working for, and studying ICRIs and
detail their unique, in-depth accounts of factors shaping ICRIs'
efforts to monitor and advance children's rights. Chapters examine
ICRIs in Belgium, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, the Netherlands,
Pakistan, and the United States, as well as an extraordinary
network of ICRIs, and introduce innovative ideas of how to think
about ICRIs' independence and legal powers. Offering perspectives
from across the world, this volume provides both theoretical and
practical insights on a crucial element of children's rights,
independent children's rights institutions. The Roles of
Independent Children's Rights Institutions in Advancing Human
Rights of Children is essential reading for students, researchers,
and scholars interested in studies of sociology of childhood, law
and society, children's rights, and human rights.
