This document outlines frameworks for conducting a child rights-based country context analysis. It discusses key international legal instruments related to child rights and defines different types of child rights. It then presents tools for analyzing issues from a child rights perspective, including causal analysis to identify root, underlying and immediate causes; role-pattern and capacity gap analysis to examine responsibilities and capacities of duty bearers; and enabling environment analysis regarding social norms, policies, and legislation. The overall aim is to integrate a child rights lens into development cooperation by accurately understanding barriers children face.

A collection of essays and viewpoints marking the 25th anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. There is much to celebrate since the Convention was adopted in 1989, from declining infant mortality to rising school enrolment. But this milestone must serve as an urgent reminder of the millions of children not yet reached – and an opportunity to find new ways of reaching them.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

3. Regional priorities
Key facts
Definitions, international legal framework
General Measures of Implementation
Translating international commitments into practice
Child-rights based Country Context Analysis
4. Child rights refers to:
A set of legally binding norms and standards
for the care and protection of children – that
apply to all children at all times in all situations
Key treaties:
CRC
CEDAW
CRPD
African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights
African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of
the Child
5. According to the CRC:
Children are defined in the CRC as all those below the
age of 18 years.
Childhood
Is recognized in the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights as a period “entitled to special care and
assistance.”
7. Survival and development rights
Rights to the resources, skills and contributions
necessary for survival and full development
Protection rights
Protection from all forms of child abuse, neglect,
exploitation and violence
Participation rights
Entitled to express their opinions and to have a say in
all matters that affect them
8. Specific provisions of the Charter relative to the
CRC
Emerging priorities based on review of country
reports and consultations on the African
Common Position on Post-2015
Opportunities for international cooperation in
Africa
9. It is an Obligation
Legal and political moral/ethical obligation by national
governments
Obligation of international cooperation actors as well
(EU commitments, UNICEF mandate, etc)
It is an Opportunity
Necessary for the achievement of development
outcomes
10. Translating the CRC commitments into practice
1. Legislation must be compatible with the CRC
2. Develop process of assessing impact of laws/policies
3. Developing a national strategy for children
4. Ensuring adequate resources allocations
5. Permanent mechanisms in gov’t for M&E
6. Training, education & capacity building
7. Cooperation/coordination with civil society
8. Appropriate indicators and sufficient data collection
9. Statutory independent children’s rights institutions
11.
12. An essential first step to integrating child rights
commitments into development cooperation
Accurately identify trends, patterns, incidence and causes
of key deprivations
Identify and analyse barriers and bottlenecks
Ensure that the most marginalized and excluded
populations are prioritized
Analyse whether evidence-based interventions and
services are prioritized in national policies, laws, strategies,
plans and budgets
13. For policy dialogue
Basis for dialogue with partner governments
During project identification
Are child rights objectives articulated?
Do activities contribute to/challenge existing inequalities?
Are there child rights issues not addressed?
During identification & formulation phases
Identify entry points for actions needed to meet child rights
objectives
During monitoring & evaluation:
Ensure a child rights-sensitive M&E system is in place
Establish indicators to measure achievement of objectives
14. Step 1:
Review critical resources
CRC Committee’s concluding observations
UNICEF situation analysis
Reports & analyses from child rights organizations
such as Save the Children
Other sources of data
Assess whether additional data is needed
Identify data gaps
15. Step 2: Analyse patterns of social exclusion and
identify underlying factors
1. Causality analysis
2. Role-pattern analysis
3. Capacity-gap analysis
4. Analysis of the enabling environment
16. Development challenge/Rights not fulfilled
Basic /structural causes
“Society, Policies, Resources”
Underlying causes
“Services, Access, Practices”
Immediate causes
“Status, and direct influences”
18. Problem 1: increasing
HIV/AIDS infection rates
Problem 2:

Statement
Negative impact of economic migration on adolescent well-being in the Philippines.
Immediate
Causes
Long-term separation from primary care-giver (mother)
Lack of consistent health care and attention
Lack of trusted parental guidance
Social stigmatization

Feminization of migration (traditionally women’s jobs – nursing, domestic
workers, food and hospitality work)
Household income needs beyond immediate family
Lack of compensatory support from family and community
Lack of special needs programmes in schools
Financial crisis (lower remittances)

and high-wage employment
Social status of women and women’s labour (exportable)
22. 2. Capacity-gap analysis
Examines the capacity of key individuals and
institutions responsible for respecting, protecting and
fulfilling the rights of children.
3. Role-pattern analysis
Delves into the roles and relationships between duty-
bearers and rights holders in relation to specific rights.
23. Level/type of
duty

Capacity and gap analysis
As defined in
relation to the
issue at hand and
local situation
Who is supposed
to do what to help
solve the
problem?
Motivation
Does the duty-
bearer accept
the
responsibility?
If not, why?
Authority
Does the duty-
bearer have the
authority to carry
out the role? If
not, who does?
Resources
Does the duty-bearer have knowledge, skills and
organizational, human, financial and materials
resources? If not, what is missing?
Knowledge

support to
children left
behind;
2. Advocate for

authorities
No because
they may not
realize the
extent of the
suffering of the
children
Yes the
immediate
family is
expected to
provide all forms
of care for the
children
including
psychosocial
care
No. Many
OFW families
do not know
how to
address
children’s
feelings of
isolation and
discrimination
No No. Many families
of OFW are
substantially
dependent on
remittances. That
said, the social
and emotional
well-being of
children and
adolescents left
behind may not
require substantial
financial
resources.
24. Examines broader policy, legal, administrative
and budgetary issues and social norms that
influence the realization of the human rights of
children and women and the reduction of
inequalities.
25. Guide for analysis of enabling environment
Social norms
analysis
A social norm is a rule or behaviour that members of a community follow
because there are positive social rewards or negative sanctions attached to it.
Lack of jobs for women at home as a viable economic alternative to migration/ foreign
unemployment.
Women’s labour viewed as exportable.
Severe gender based occupational segregation.
Policy-gap
analysis
Examines the principles and long-term goals that form the basis for making
rules and guidelines, giving overall direction to planning and development.
No systematic data collection on children left behind.
Legislative
analysis
Should examine and highlight the degree to which the national legislative
framework is compatible with the provisions of the CRC, CEDAW and the CRPD.
• While export of workers is a policy for the Philippines, there are not sufficient policies to support
children left behind and low knowledge of the existing measures in place for support.
