A Children's Rights Glossary

This Glossary is published as a companion volume to the International Children's Rights Thesaurus. It aims to provide a detailed key to the specialized terminology used in the field of children's rights, and particularly in the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). The Glossary concludes with a thematic listing of selected international instruments relevant to children's rights. It is hoped that the Glossary will be useful in promoting a better understanding of children's rights terminology among specialists and non-specialists alike.
