The UN Children's Convention and Australia
Files
Description
The theme running through all of the papers is that while ratification of the Convention is one thing; its implementation is quite another. In other words, while formal acceptance of the obligations contained in the Convention is a relatively straightforward process, the transformation of its many provisions into Australian law, policy and practice is infinitely more complex and demanding. The papers in this volume seek to identify and explore some of the key issues which arise In that regard. In addition, because of the value of comparing Australian approaches to those of some of our peers in the community of nations, international perspectives from Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States are also included.
