Weekend World Podcast 13-04-2025: UNCRC and Children's Rights by Voice of Islam

This event was hosted by Cambridge Family Law Centre (CFL) on 7 March 2024. Speakers: Professor Laura Lundy (Queen’s University Belfast), Professor Anne Barlow (University of Exeter) & Dr Jan Ewing (University of Cambridge) When parents separate, children have the right to a voice in the decision-making per their article 12, UNCRC rights. However, evidence shows that this right is rarely upheld in England and Wales. Professor Lundy has developed the ‘Lundy Model of Child Participation’ (‘the Lundy Model’), a core set of rights-based principles to ensure young people can participate meaningfully in decision-making. The model is core to the Irish National Framework on Child and Youth Participation. It has been adopted internationally, by the European Commission, World Health Organisation, World Vision and UNICEF. Professor Lundy presents the Lundy Model and Professor Barlow and Dr Ewing presents the findings of empirical research from the Wellcome Trust Centre-funded, ‘HeaRT Project’ to consider the extent to which child-inclusive mediation as currently practised in England and Wales is compliant with their article 12 rights and the mental health and well-being benefits to young people when they are given space, voice, audience and influence per the Lundy Model in child-inclusive mediation.

Rising living costs: UNCRC urges gov't to protect children's rights when planning budget by Radio Islam

Leif Widebert är Osteopat och hade redan startat sin klinik Hälsosjälen 1990, då han blev färdig osteopat 1992. Efter det så har han fortsatt utbilda sig i kraniell osteopati, Biodynamics, osteopatisk pediatri (barn) och rytmisk rörelseträning. Osteopati är en internationellt erkänd och etablerad form av manuell behandlingsmedicin där man använder händerna för diagnos och behandling. I osteopati ser man människan som en helhet och lägger stor vikt vid hur kroppens alla system samverkar. Osteopati beskrivs som en manuell medicin där händerna utgör det främsta redskapet för att taktilt fastställa diagnos och behandla besvär relaterade till kroppens rörelseorgan. Behandlingsformen är legitimerad i flera europeiska länder och i de övriga nordiska länderna Norge, Island, Finland och Danmark Leif har i sin yrkesutövning sedan 90-talet främst valt att arbeta med stress och psykosomatik. De senast åren än mer fokuserade på kroppens och nervsystemets traumarespons, det som kan beskrivas som att någon har blivit utsatt för något "Too much, too fast, too soon". Under ett antal år var han också med och bildade och drev "Föreningen Hela Barn" som arbetade för att även Sveriges föräldrar skall ha rätt att välja alternativ/komplementär behandling för sina barn. Den möjligheten finns i olika former i resten av världens länder. Lobbyingen fick bifall även från UNCRC men Sveriges regering valde att neka möjligheten. Bortsett från allt detta så har Leif varit rektor på Osteopathögskolan, och även undervisat i pediatrisk osteopati på Skandinaviska Osteopathögskolan och Stockholms Collage of Osteopathic medicine samt arbetat på både kliniker och sjukhus i Tyskland och Norge. Nyligen har Leif tillsammans med sina kollegor flyttat in i "GoCo Clinic House" i Mölndal, för att där kunna vidare utveckla det Integrativa i södra Sverige.

Why Does the U.S. Refuse to Ratify the UNCRC? | Convention on the Rights of the Child (farzadlaw.com)  United States and the International Criminal Court – Wikipedia  Allied war crimes during World War II – Wikipedia  List of Axis personnel indicted for war crimes – Wikipedia  Tune in: Podcast Links – Psychopath In Your Life The post United Nation Convention on Rights of the Child (UNCRC) and International Criminal Court (ICC) **DOES NOT INCLUDE THE USA – WTF appeared first on Psychopath In Your Life.

Are children domestic violence victims in their own right? Are they co-victims with the adult survivor? What is the relationship between the child and the adult survivors' experiencesHow do we hold domestic violence perpetrators accountable in their role as parents? How do we consider the child's relationship to the perpetrator in decisions related to them? How do we make sure both adult and child survivors receive the support they need and deserve? How do we consider the best interests of child survivors as we craft our policy and practice response to domestic violence? How do we ensure that child survivors' voices are heard in matters that are relevant to them? These are some of the critical questions being asked around the globe as governments, through their courts, legislatures and agencies, work to ensure the safety and well-being of children impacted by domestic violence perpetrators' behaviors. They are not just academic questions as they are central to decisions made every day by governmental bodies like child protection and family court.  For governments and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), a primary touchstone for these questions is the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), the most widely accepted human rights document in history.  From its inception the Safe & Together Model has employed a robust child-centered framework to keep the focus on children's experience, needs and wishes in the context of domestic violence cases. Compared to other domestic violence assessment and practice frameworks which often treat children as an afterthought to the safety and well-being of the adult survivor, the Safe & Together Model has always focused on addressing the children's distinct lived experiences. It differs dramatically from other approaches which assume that you don't need to focus separately on the experience of the child but only need to keep the children safe by keeping the adult survivor safe — in essence making invisible the unique and individual experience of the child. In this episode, David and Ruth discuss how the Safe & Together Model supports the rights of children through the lens of its alignment with the UNCRC. With a special focus on the "voice of the child" (Article 12) and children's best interest decision-making (Article 3),  David Ruth talk aboutHow domestic violence perpetrators' actions attack children's human rightsHow a literal interpretation of the "voice of the child" is not enough especially when it comes to the most vulnerable childrenHow many of perpetrator's behaviors of coercive control happen outside a child's view but still impacts themHow the Model helps listen deeply and understand children's experience  and assists in best interest decision making in domestic violence cases involving children Now available! Mapping the Perpetrator's Pattern: A Practitioner's Tool for Improving Assessment, Intervention, and Outcomes The web-based Perpetrator Pattern Mapping Tool is a virtual practice tool for improving assessment, intervention, and outcomes through a perpetrator pattern-based approach.

David Wright, Early years Ambassador for Paint Pots nurseries, shares his international work in the early childhood sector. Angelica and David discuss the wider context of early childhood, including the power of education in addressing wider societal issues through children, the innocence of youth and how influences from the media and community change this. David explains that our hope lies in the next generation, and early childhood is a window of opportunity to make a difference to children, including with 'cumulative doses of therapy' - every interaction makes a difference to a child.

We welcome back Dr Sue Allingham in this episode following on from a month highly focused around mental health and wellbeing. We often discuss wellbeing from both a theoretical view and quite a negative and deficit perspective of all the things that are not working. What about discussing what we CAN do, the solutions rather than just the problems… Angelica Celinska and Dr Sue Allingham discuss both adults' and children's wellbeing, what is right for each individual, what is your way of listening? How sometimes we recognise individual needs in adults but actually not always in children. The fact that we cannot schedule wellbeing, and in who's opinion is it wellbeing anyway? What does wellbeing mean? They consider the need to recognise how the other person feels secure in themselves, and questioning “what do I know about the children and adults around me and what makes them feel comfortable”?   Angelica and Sue tap into: Stepping back and observing – interacting or interfering (Julie Fisher) The adult agenda impacting on children's wellbeing ‘Chocolates in the staffroom and golden time on a Friday' Sitting ‘nicely' – what IS sitting nicely, in who's opinion? Intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation The Leuven Scale – Dr Ferre Laevers' emotional wellbeing and involvement scales Sticker charts, marble jars, golden time, circle time…does this work for your children? For your community? For your team? For YOU as an educator? Leaders tuning in to their individual team's needs Critical reflection and critical consumption of knowledge Pressures from various central bodies ‘Emotional backpacks' The right to silence – the United Nations Convention on the Rights of a Child Reading body language  How do children know you value them? How does your team know you value them? Slow pedagogy – Dr Alison Clark Emotional and physical wellbeing is all about the entire body – do the children feel comfortable in the setting? Does your team feel comfortable? Distractions in the environment

The first sentence of this podcast will probably resonate with many people. Shona Minson courageously talks about the impact upon her health and wellbeing of working intimately with traumatised children and mothers. It is a very honest conversation and we are grateful to Shona for sharing her reflections with us.   Shona is currently a British Academy Post Doctoral Fellow at the Centre for Criminology. Since March 2020 she has been researching the impact of COVID-19 prison lockdowns on children who have a parent in prison.   She has provided training to judiciary on the sentencing of mothers and primary carers in England and Wales, Northern Ireland and New Zealand and the Pacific Islands.  In 2018 she released the film series 'Safeguarding Children when Sentencing Mothers' for sentencers, advocates, probation staff and women facing sentence in England and Wales. She has more recently been involved in a similar series for criminal justice professionals in Scotland, which was released in April 2021.    After graduating from St.Anne's College, Oxford in Jurisprudence Shona was called to the Bar of England and Wales and practised criminal and family law from 1 King's Bench Walk, London. Her professional experience led to her research interest in the points of intersection between family and criminal law. She obtained an MSc (Distinction)  from the University of Surrey in Criminology, Criminal Justice and Social Research in 2012. Her Masters research explored  the impact of motherhood as mitigation in criminal sentencing using interviews with members of the judiciary and an analysis of sentencing transcripts. Shona then moved to the Centre for Criminology at the University of Oxford and funded by the ESRC she undertook DPhil research which analysed the place of children in maternal sentencing decisions in England and Wales. She explored the status of children of prisoners in English law and engaged directly with children and their carers to explore the nature of the impact of maternal imprisonment. She also interviewed members of the Crown Court judiciary to examine sentencing practice. In 2017/ 2018 Shona was employed by the Faculty of Law as the Research Officer on an ESRC Impact Acceleration Award funded project in association with the Prison Reform Trust and Dr Rachel Condry.  ' Addressing the Impact of Maternal Imprisonment: Developing Collaborative Training' . It built on the findings of her doctoral work and provide information, in the form of films, to sentencers and legal professionals to aid consistency and understanding in maternal sentencing decisions. The films were launched in January 2018 and are available for sentencers, advocates and probation staff. An additional film was made for women themselves facing sentence and it can be viewed here.  Shona shared her research findings with the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Human Rights in March 2018, in particular with regard to the state duty to protect children from discrimination which they may face as a consequence of the status or activities of their parents (UNCRC, Article 2). As a consequence the JCHR held an enquiry into the right to family life of children whose mother is imprisoned.    Transcript of conversation can be found here: https://open.substack.com/pub/lockedupliving/p/are-you-at-risk-for-vicarious-trauma?r=216eb0&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

In today's episode, British sailor, Tracy Edwards, and I sit down to discuss her extraordinary journey and the life lessons she has learned through her passion for sailing and making a difference in the world. Tracy was the first woman to win the Yachtsman of the Year Award in the United Kingdom and assembled the first all-female crew to compete in the Whitbread Around the World Race, a treacherous 33000-mile course consisting of 6 different legs. Not only did they finish second in the race, Tracy and her team changed the course of racing history and inspired countless females to follow their dreams and and to strive for excellence in their lives. In today's discussion, Tracy opens up about the hardship and challenge that she experienced and how she had to overcome these obstacles in order to find her purpose and meaning in life. A deep thank you to Tracy for her time and energy. Tracy's documentary can be seen on Netflix at:  https://www.netflix.com/title/81272339About Tracy: Tracy was expelled from school at the age of 15 and with no exams or qualifications she left to travel the world. She began working on charter yachts in Greece at the age of 17 and learned how to sail. Tracy took part in her first Whitbread Round the World Race as cook aboard ‘Atlantic Privateer' in 1985/86 becoming the first woman to race around the world on a Maxi.Upon completion she decided to enter the first all-female crew in the 1989/90 Whitbread and ‘Maiden' crossed the start line on 2nd Sept 1989 and sailed into the history books. ‘Maiden' went on to win two of the legs and came second in class overall. The best result for a British boat since 1977 and the best result for an all-female crew ever. Tracy was awarded the MBE and became the first woman in its 34 year history to be awarded the Yachtsman of the Year Trophy.In 1998 Tracy put together the first all-female crew to race a Multihull, this time in an attempt to be the first all-female crew to sail around the world non-stop and win the Jules Verne Trophy for the fastest non-stop circumnavigation of the world by sail. Sponsored by Royal & SunAlliance, the women had broken five world records and were well on the way to beating the Jules Verne, when their 92ft catamaran was dismasted 2000 miles off the coast of Chile.In 2002, Edwards created the first ever truly mixed gender team and broke four major world records in Maiden II.In October 2003 she signed a sponsorship deal with the Gulf State of Qatar as part of a four year sailing programme. The Oryx Quest 2005 was the first round the world race to start and finish in the Middle East. The worlds' four largest and fastest multihulls raced against each other for the first time in sailing history. The event ended with non-payment by Qatar.In 2007 and 2008 Tracy worked for CEOP (Child Exploitation and Online Protection) as Project Manager for their International Youth Advisory Conference. Working with the UN she assisted in the creation of the 2009 Resolution to the UNCRC.

In this safeguarding podcast with Baroness Beeban Kidron of 5Rights, we discuss the rights of children online. What are the moral and legal obligations of businesses as far as children are concerned? How can large scale digital service providers encapsulate children's rights as defined by the UN CRC into their services? What are Age Appropriate Digital Services? Is "privacy" absolute and is that all that's needed for safety, and is Section230 the root of all evil?

In this safeguarding podcast we discuss with Special Representative of the UN Secretary General on Violence Against Children, Najat Maalla M’jid, the UN CRC, what it is and the 4 under-pinning General Principles, the Optional Protocols, the Sustainable Development Goals especially SDG16, and the impact of COVID on meeting the 2030 targets. Also, VNRs, what they are and what’s missing to make them really effective.

The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) is a legally-binding international agreement setting out the civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of every child, regardless of their race, religion or abilities.

In this episode, Damien and I talk about the importance of reflection in Social Work practice and his experience leading a multifunctional team to support people severely injured in motor vehicle accidents. We discuss clinical supervision and reflective practice and resources he draws on in the course of his work. We also touch on the positive moves within some government departments to bring new life, experience and enthusiasm to our roles and organisation culture, and how this can support him to develop creative solutions to address barriers for people with a disability.

In conversation with Adv Karabo Ozah The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) is a legally-binding international agreement setting out the civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of every child, regardless of their race, religion or abilities. The guiding principles of the Convention include non-discrimination; adherence to the best interests of the child; the right to life, survival and development; and the right to participate. Upon commemorating 30 years of the existence of the UNCRC, and in conversation with  Ms Karabo Ozah, the Director of the Centre for Child Law at the University of Pretoria, this episode explores and measures the impact of the UNCRC and its relevance in the African context. In this conversation, Karabo makes an important comparison between the UNCRC and the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child. She shows the link of cultural relativism in relation to the concept of children’s rights in the African setting. This conversation was recorded on 27 November 2019.

In this episode of Queers & Co., I’m joined by Sophie Christophy, feminist, children’s rights activist and co-founder of a self-directed, consent and rights based education setting called the Cabin. We chat about children’s rights and how the dominant parent culture is a representation of patriarchy, how schooling is not designed to allow for individuality, queering education and the importance of ed positivity.

Sophie: Hi Gem. How are you? Gem: I'm good, thank you. How are you? Sophie: I'm fine, thank you. I'm fine. Gem: Good and so I'm really excited to talk to you and it feels a bit weird because we're friends in real life. It would be really great for other people than me if you could introduce yourself. Sophie: Yeah, sure. Okay. So I'm Sophie. I have a few hats. I'm a children's rights activist fundamentally but I am also the Co-Director of a consent-based self-directed education setting called The Cabin. And I'm a trustee for an education charity called the Phoenix Education Trust as well as being a parent to two children who are unschooled and yeah, living life basically. I'd say that's probably a summary for the moment. Gem: There's lots to explore there. I guess lots of new terms that people might not have come across if they're not familiar with unschooling or home ed for example. So I guess my first question will probably be the fundamentals of what are children's rights. Sophie: Okay. Sothere's a legal document, which is helpful, called the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. And it was created over a couple of decades actually and finally ratified in 1990 by the UK but every country in the world has, symbolically at least ratified the treaty apart from the United States. Gem: Interesting! Sophie: I know it's a long story. The UNCRC lays out a whole bunch of rights

In this review of 2019 we remind ourselves of the work done by the Internet Watch Foundation, we discuss Brexit and Age Verification, we define and measure cyberbullying, we cover grooming for radicalisation as well as for sexual exploitation, we delve into the digital age of consent, we ask whether the UN CRC is fit for purpose in the 21st century and explore some Ecumenical aspects of the complex and dynamic topic of safeguarding children in the online digital context.

In this safeguarding podcast, Professor Sonia Livingstone OBE discusses the Online Harms white paper, whether the UNCRC is fit for the digital age and why the USA hasn't signed up to it, whether the FTC's COPPA "digital age of consent" should be raised to 16 and why it's 13 in the first place, and how social media companies are abusing children's privacy as detailed in her report "Children's Data and Privacy Online; Growing up in a Digital Age".

Do you find that the world is different than you thought it was? Do you notice that people act differently? Are the laws changing faster than you can understand them? If you have been putting pieces together to see that the world is not coming together, then this topic is for you. We'll discuss the Transgender Agenda and how it is just one part of a larger Transhumanist Agenda. We'll also define words so we are all on the same page. New laws in France ban the words 'mother' and 'father' on school forms.  Birth certificates are now non-binary with options for three sexes.  The United Nations Agendas are out in the open, blatant for all to see. Nothing is hidden. The boxes have been checked off. It is a done deal. A fait accompli.  We are in a world that is coming for us... that is to say... a world not of our making. The expectation is for revolution but we need to be careful that we do not fall into traps. There is a higher path of action, or reaction, and it does not involve a fight. Are you ready for what is coming? For review of the concepts, see my blogs on The Transhumanist Agenda , Identity Suppression and Rights , The Ruse of Children's Rights, and Loss of Identity: UN Agenda 2019

We are continuing our uploading of presentations from the Ontario Association of Child and Youth Care conference which took place in June 2017. Today’s episode is called Walking the Path Towards Meaningful Youth Engagement. The presentation is by two young people who lived in residential care and three Ryerson University Master’s in Child and Youth Care Students.   The following is the conference abstract:   Walking the Path Towards Meaningful Youth Engagement Since the ratification of the UNCRC, the participation and voice of young people has become a focus in child and youth serving organizations. Progress has been made, however young people still find themselves silenced, dismissed, and removed from the conversations and decisions impacting their lives. Current initiatives for youth engagement are often limited through tokenistic and outdated approaches, that result in young people continuing to feel as though they are not heard and do not have control over their own lives. We as CYCs need to model and advocate for the advancement of meaningful and authentic youth engagement. In order to do this, we need to unpack the complexities and barriers so we can envision a way forward. This presentation will focus on the role of CYC practitioners to support and partner with young people to elevate their voices and participation in the care and services they receive. Through a reflective process, we will examine the barriers that inhibit us from fully implementing a youth engagement approach in our daily practice. CYCs have the responsibility to navigate through these barriers.   Camille Bautista is a current high school student and Ryerson bound hopeful with a particular passion concerning the complexities surrounding philosophical conundrums. She aspires to become a lawyer in the hopes of lending her voice and determination to advocate for the rights of either the environment’s protection or refugee crises.   Charles Jackson is a current student of Fleming College in the Academic Upgrading program, who will be attending Fleming in the fall for the Personal Support Worker Program. Charles hopes to work with the disabled and elderly community, in order to help them remember their humanity and special place in our society.   Joe Blake, BA CYC is currently enrolled in the MA CYC program and has been working in the field of CYC for seven years. Joe’s interests in the field particularly lie in the areas of the youth justice system, restorative practices, social justice, Indigenous practices and youth advocacy.   Amanda Mayhew, BA CYC, MA CYC candidate, is a dynamic CYC practitioner who has been in the field for 8 years. Her expertise is in residential care, where she has been a leader in relational and strength-based approaches. Amanda is well versed in the research on children’s rights and youth engagement. Her passion is advocating for young people to be included in all decisions that impact their lives.   Christopher Tone, BA CYC, MA CYC candidate, has practiced in the CYC field in varying capacities for approximately twelve years. The bulk of his experience lies in school based and residential care for young people who have been dually diagnosed and/or have ASD. Christopher is keenly interested in exploring issues surrounding street involved youth, and the application of children’s rights in Canada and in international contexts
