This handbook provides authoritative and cutting-edge analyses of
various aspects of the rights and lives of disabled children around
the world. Taking the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with
Disabilities (CRPD) and the UN Convention of the Rights of the
Child (CRC) as conceptual frameworks, this work appraises the
current state of affairs concerning the rights of disabled children
across different stages of childhood, different life domains, and
different socio-cultural contexts. The book is divided into four
sections: Legislation and Policy Children’s Voice The Life Course
in Childhood Life Domains in Childhood Comprised of 37 newly
commissioned chapters featuring analyses of UN documents and case
studies from Australia, Brazil, Ethiopia, Hong Kong, Italy, the
Netherlands, Norway, Papua New Guinea, Serbia, South Africa, Spain,
Sweden, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Vanuatu, its
multidisciplinary approach reflects the complexities of the lives
of disabled children and the multifarious nature of the strategies
needed to ensure their rights are upheld. It will be of interest to
researchers and students working in disability studies, education,
allied health, law, philosophy, play studies, social policy, and
the sociology of childhood. It will also be a valuable resource for
professionals/practitioners, allowing them to consider future
directions for ensuring that disabled children’s rights are
realised and their well-being and dignity are assured.
