Ending legalised violence against children: All Africa report 2010

‘Ending legalised violence against children: All Africa report 2010’ is published jointly by The African Child Policy Forum, the Global Initiative to End All Corporal Punishment of Children and Save the Children Sweden. It documents the progress that is being made across Africa in enacting laws which prohibit corporal punishment and promoting positive, non-violent ways of parenting and educating children. It also highlights the amount of work still to be done on the issue, providing a state by state analysis of corporal punishment of children in all settings—the home, schools, penal systems and alternative care settings—and an overview of current opportunities for achieving legal reform.
