The purpose of this book is to combine perspectives of scholars from Africa on Child Theology from a variety of theological sub-disciplines to provide some theological and ministerial perspectives on this topic. The book disseminates original research and new developments in this study field, especially as relevant to the African context. In the process it addresses also the global need to hear voices from Africa in this academic field. It aims to convey the importance of considering Africa’s children in theologising. The different chapters represent diverse methodologies, but the central and common focus is to approach the subject from the viewpoint of Africa’s children. The individual authors’ varied theological sub-disciplinary dispositions contribute to the unique and distinct character of the book. Almost all chapters are theoretical orientated with less empirical but more qualitative research, although some of the chapters refer to empirical research that the authors have performed in the past. Most of the academic literature in the field of Child Theologies is from American or British-European origin. The African context is fairly absent in this discourse, although it is the youngest continent and presents unique and relevant challenges. This book was written by theological scholars from Africa, focussing on Africa’s children. It addresses not only theoretical challenges in this field but also provides theological perspectives for ministry with children and for important social change. Written from a variety of theological sub-disciplines, the book is aimed at scholars across theological sub-disciplines, especially those theological scholars interested in the intersections between theology, childhood studies and African cultural or social themes. It addresses themes and provides insights that are also relevant for specialist leaders and professionals in this field. No part of the book was plagiarised from another publication or published elsewhere.

Social protection is an increasingly important part of the social policy dialogue in Africa, and yet because of its relatively new place in a rapidly evolving agenda, evidence on critical design choices such as targeting, and on impacts of social protection interventions, is mostly limited to case studies or small, unrepresentative surveys. This impressive collection makes a major contribution to building the evidence base, drawing on rigorous analysis of social protection programmes in several African countries, as well as original research and thinking on key topical issues in the social protection discourse. Social Protection for Africa’s Children is divided into four parts. The first presents economic and human-rights based right arguments for social protection as an integral part of the social policy menu in Africa. This is followed by a part on targeting, which highlights some of the key policy trade-offs faced when deciding between alternative target groups. The third part presents rigorous quantitative evidence on the impact of social cash transfers on children from programmes in South Africa, Malawi and Ethiopia and the final part addresses a set of issues related to social justice and human rights. This book significantly advances existing knowledge about social protection for children in Africa, both conceptually and empirically. It makes a strong case for social protection interventions that address the short term (amelioration) and long term (structural) needs of children, and shows that programming in this sector for children is both feasible and achievable. Policy makers and practitioners in this sector will have, in this book, the theoretical and empirical evidence necessary to advance social protection for Africa’s children in the decades to come. Furthermore, this book should be an essential resource to postgraduates and students focussing on development economics in Africa.

About the publication Human rights norms will largely remain hollow if they are not translated into the lived realities of people on the ground. Given the diversity and complexities of human rights norms, the arrays of institutions, mechanisms and resource required to give full effect to these norms, implementation of human rights norms is a continuous and progressive undertaking. Progress, to be meaningful, should have milestones and mechanisms for tracking it. The reporting mechanisms are human rights’ monitoring and evaluation plans and systems to track progressive implementation. This book provides an assessment of the reporting mechanisms of child rights treaty bodies. It highlights what is working or not working and why, making recommendations for further improvement of the reporting mechanism to better work for children in Africa. The findings and recommendations in the book are based on a study commissioned by the Centre for Human Rights, to assess the effects of reporting to United Nations and African Union child rights treaty bodies on the enjoyment of rights, protection and welfare of children in Africa. It covers 17 African countries, and provides a historical snapshot of the situation as at the end of 2017.

Taking a rights-based approach, this comprehensive study develops a conceptual framework and a definitive set of holistic indicators for monitoring the well-being of children in South Africa. Taking cues from the child-rights focus of the South African constitution, it is made clear that it is not just the state of the children that is important to measure, but also the contexts within which the children grow and develop. Providing practical tools for policy makers to assess the effectiveness of child-based policies and interventions, this practical work addresses a wide range of domains--child poverty, HIV and AIDS, education, mental health and disability, abuse and neglect, the justice system, and children affected by the worst forms of labor.

In democratic South Africa, "Beyond Redress" emerges as a beacon of hope, illuminating a path towards true equality and justice. This groundbreaking work delves deep into the heart of the nation's ongoing struggle for reconciliation, challenging the conventional wisdom surrounding redress policies and their impact on children. The book's central thesis is both provocative and compelling: that well-intentioned policies designed to redress the injustices of apartheid have inadvertently perpetuated inequality and exacerbated social ills. By meticulously examining the unintended consequences of affirmative action, Black Economic Empowerment (BEE), and other race-based initiatives, the author reveals a troubling reality: that these policies have often benefited a privileged few while leaving the majority of South Africans, particularly the "born-free" generation, mired in poverty and disadvantage. "Beyond Redress" confronts the uncomfortable truth that the pursuit of redress has sometimes come at the expense of the best interests of the child. The book highlights how discriminatory practices, even those sanctioned by the state in the name of "fair discrimination," can have devastating consequences for children's development, education, and future prospects. Through poignant anecdotes and compelling data, the book paints a vivid picture of the challenges faced by the "born-free" generation and their children. It reveals how the burden of redress policies often falls disproportionately on the shoulders of these young people, limiting their opportunities and perpetuating a cycle of disadvantage. But "Beyond Redress" is not simply a critique of the status quo; it is a call to action, a blueprint for a more just and equitable future. The author proposes a radical reimagining of South Africa's approach to redress, one that prioritizes the best interests of the child above all else. This child-centric approach recognizes that every policy decision ultimately impacts the lives of children. At the heart of this vision is a shift away from race-based policies towards a merit-based system that rewards individual potential and achievement. By focusing on individual capabilities rather than immutable characteristics, South Africa can create a truly inclusive society where everyone has the opportunity to succeed based on their own merit.
