Abstract
‘This report is aimed at providing an overview of the situation of children in South Africa, with a focus on the nonfulfillment and violation of children’s rights as formulated in the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). The assessment utilises evidence drawn from available literature and interviews with key actors in the South African child rights arena. Based on the opinions of these key respondents, the report provides an overview of key role players in the field, followed by suggestions for possible areas for intervention by international aid agencies. The assessment is limited by a number of elements, such as an extremely short time frame, the shortage of relevant information in certain areas, and the description of role players in the child rights arena is not comprehensive.’ [p. 4]
