Nigeria begins review of 23-year-old Child Rights Act
Original: Nigeria reviews 23-year-old Child Rights Act
Nigeria has started a review of its Child Rights Act, the landmark law adopted in 2003 to protect children's rights, including education, health and protection from exploitation and abuse. After more than two decades, officials and child-rights advocates are examining whether the legislation still reflects current realities, enforcement gaps and the challenges facing Nigerian children today.
Why now: The revision of a long-standing child protection law is drawing attention from human rights watchers and policy observers.
