In this special issue, we explore child rights governance as the intersection between the study of governance and the study of children, childhood, and children's rights. Our introduction puts forward a set of theoretical points of departure for the study of child rights governance, engaging with scholarship on human rights, international relations, history, and governance. It links the individual contributions to this special issue with four central dimensions of child rights governance, namely: temporality, spatiality, subjectivity, and normativity.

An examination of complications involved in interpreting the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) focuses on the role of religious leaders, especially in countries like Iran where religion is the political foundation of the state. UNICEF has entered into a dialogue with Islamic scholars by highlighting similarities between Islam & international standards.

It is important for the worldwide application of child rights to foster deeper understanding about them and Islam. UNICEF has entered into dialogue with Islamic scholars by highlighting congruencies between Islam and international standards. This dialogue started before the adoption of the CRC in 1989. In 1985 a study was undertaken by Al Azhar University in Cairo on child care in Islam. In 2005 a joint report by the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), the Islamic Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ISESCO) and UNICEF underlined common goals in realising children's rights. The focus of these studies was mainly on social rights, leaving aside the more controversial areas of civil and political rights. Adapted from the source document.

The study aimed to clarify the aspects of protection provided for the delinquent child while dealing with the security and judicial authorities in the United Arab Emirates compared to the legislation of other countries. Indeed, the phenomenon of child delinquency is one of the most dangerous phenomena that children may be exposed to and leads them to wrongdoing and obstruction of public order in society. It prompted the UAE legislator to look after the delinquent child and take care of him. The study relied on the descriptive-analytical approach, to suit it with the understanding of all its elements and the determination of the facts, through the legal analysis of the phenomenon of delinquency and the statement of its causes and legal solutions according to what was stated by the UAE legislator. The study reached many results, including that the UAE legislator, like other international legislation, devoted special care for the delinquent child by enacting a set of preventive and deterrent laws, through which the aim was to protect the delinquent child, as these legislations contained many guarantees and mechanisms that provide him with care.

Abstract- The children of any country are its valuable assets. No nation on the globe can ignore the responsibility to ensure the proper growth and development of the Children as the future of the country lies with them. According to the International Labour Organisation, One in eight children in the world are exposed to the worst forms of child labour which endanger children's physical, mental health and moral well being. The situation in India is worsening. Despite hectic planning, welfare programmes, legislation, and administrative action in the past six decades, a large majority of the Indian Children continue to remain in distress & turmoil. In most families neglect them, caretakers batter them and in work-places employers sexually abuse them. Child labour continues to flourish in both rural and urban India. Though this problem of emotional, physical and sexual abuse of children is increasing in India, it has failed to capture the attention of sociologists, social workers and psychiatrists. The public and the government also are yet to recognize it as a serious problem. This paper tries to examine the nature, extent, magnitude and impact of Child labour. The paper also makes an attempt to locate the significance of Child rights & concludes with some measures from a strategic perspective to pause the increase of child labour in India.
