Following the 30th anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child in 2020, and the creation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, there is increased interest in and a need to develop national human rights' bodies for children's rights.

This book analyses of the incorporation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. It combines individual contributions that address the experience of legal incorporation in countries around the world, with comparative analysis of the international landscape.

This work examines the United Nations Convention on the Rights of The Child finalized in 1989 along with the children's rights movement as a whole. The historical study draws on the Geneva Declaration in 1924 up to the Convention in 1989, tracing the changing principles of children's rights.
