Child Protection Policies in Egypt: A Rights-Based Approach: Cairo Papers Vol. 30, No. 1 (Cairo Papers in Social Science, Spring 2007, 30-1)

This study seeks to provide a critical analysis of child protection policies in Egypt and examine whether these policies are based on the rights-based model of child protection that is embodied in the Convention for Child Rights (CRC). It identifies the ways in which these policies fail to link child rights and child protection and thus are unable to provide integrated and accessible services that meet children’s needs.
