Child protection systems across the globe are developing at pace, each reflecting their unique economic, social, and cultural contexts.
This book provides an overview of 11 child protection systems from low- and middle-income countries and discusses the formal and informal responses countries are making to the shared problem of child abuse and maltreatment. Within each chapter, vignettes give readers a window into how each countrys child protection system operates in practice.
This is essential reading for academics, social work professionals and anybody working within child and family welfare.
Recenzijas
This book provides a comprehensive, practice-based account of child protection systems from scholars and frontline practitioners across Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America. Exploring how maltreatment is defined, reported, and addressed, each chapter examines real-world responses to child maltreatment, which enriches our understanding of child protection practices in under-researched regions. Neil Gilbert, University of California, Berkeley This is a valuable book and makes a real and distinctive contribution to the growing literature on comparative child protection studies.
