This book discusses legal services clinics and various other
access-to-justice initiatives that are established to protect and
represent the rights and interests of children and youth in several
countries across the globe. These could include legal services or
access-to-justice clinics run by government or universities or
community. The book has contributions from academicians, lawyers,
researchers and legal professionals from several counties including
India, UK, USA, Brazil, Australia, Indonesia, Poland, and Spain,
which discuss how they represent children and youth in their
countries. The book looks at how these access-to-justice
initiatives currently provide assistance, what are the child
friendly justice procedures they use, and best practices that can
be replicable in other jurisdictions. The chapters contain findings
of field research studies, some case studies, and models related to
these topics. There are recommendations on ways to strengthen
access-to-justice and legal services for empowering children and
youth. The main goal is to create a resource for readers who want
to expand child advocacy opportunities in their own universities
and communities. The reader may also learn how to conduct
legislative advocacy and case law advocacy to improve laws in other
jurisdictions; and take-away best and replicable initiatives. The
practices could be adaptable by other clinics and countries. The
book will be useful to child rights advocates and defenders,
students of law, legal researchers, civil society organizations,
legal services authorities, legal aid institutions, educational
institutions, school authorities, juvenile justice authorities,
clinical legal educators, justice educators, justice practitioners
and law and policy makers.
