The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UN CRC) is widely known amongst child rights experts and researchers. But while it receives attention from important international institutions, it still remains an abstract text to those closer to children in what concerns their health care: paediatricians, general practitioners, nurses and other health care professionals. This book introduces the key principles of the UN CRC and explains how children’s rights can be applied in routine care. It also aims to present the Convention as a framework to improve the delivery of health care to children. This book is aimed at undergraduate and graduate students, junior health care professionals of different categories. Other health care professionals may also benefit from the principles explored in the book. In this book you will learn about the UN CRC and why it is relevant to routine children’s health care; and children’s rights to health care, life, survival and development; the right to non-discrimination; the principle of the best interests of the child; the right to information and participation; the right to protection from all forms of violence; the right to play and the right to respect parents’ rights.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
