Child Rights-Based Approach

A Child Rights-Based Approach (CRBA) is a way of focusing on children by ensuring their rights are recognized, protected, and fulfilled. It treats children as individuals with their own rights, such as health, education, safety, and participation in decisions affecting them. This approach promotes accountability from governments and caregivers to uphold these rights and empowers children to be active participants in shaping their lives. Essentially, CRBA integrates child rights into policies, programs, and practices, ensuring children’s well-being and development are prioritized and respected in all actions.
