Children’s Rights from an Environmental Perspective – Implications for Action

Save the Children Sweden (SCS) has been developing a focus on children’s environments, and especially the environments of urban children in low-income countries. As part of SCS’s initial exploration, a number of background documents have been produced, including this report, which focuses on children’s health and development seen from an ecological perspective. The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child serves as an organising framework in reviewing the relationship between children and their environment.
