In a child-friendly school, children can feel safe and secure, learn without bullying and violence, develop their potentials, participate, and take on responsibility. The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child provides an excellent foundation for developing schools into value-based and democratic learning and living environments. In this practical book, the authors present a variety of good examples of how children's rights can be learned and lived in schools - as a shared responsibility for teachers, students, parents, and educational professionals.
