Abstract
This chapter discusses implementing children’s rights in social work practice. The first part deals with the general idea of rights-based approaches for working with children, referring mainly to development work with children around the world. The second part deals directly with how a rights-based approach can be implemented in social work practice, both at the macro and the micro level. We focus on two main practices relevant to social work: child advocacy and child participation.
