Janusz Korczak, whose original name was Henryk Goldszmit, Is seen as the father of the very idea that children also have rights - human rights. His thinking had a profound impact on the drafting of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and continue to influence the child-friendly programmes of the Council of Europe. Korczak's message was about respect for children, respect for their inherent value as human beings but also for their capacity and competence. Though continuously practicing as a medical doctor and assisting in orphanages, he was also a writer. His essay "The Child's Right to Respect" in which he analyses the role of adults And The place of children in society is published in this volume. Koczak's vision about children's rights is still relevant. What can we learn from his ideas when tackling today's problems? Five children's rights activists analysed current problems in the spirit of Korczak. No library descriptions found. |
