Produktbeschreibung
The Millennium Development Goal (MDG) on Universal Education for all (Goal 2) has received widespread international attention, but only recently has the threat posed to its achievement by school-based violence emerged on the policy agenda. Until the 2006 United Nations Study on Violence against Children, the problem of school-based violence remained largely invisible, for a number of reasons: Schools have typically been viewed as 'safe' places for children; debates on prevention of violence against children have largely concerned domestic or stranger violence; and the focus on universal education enshrined in MDG 2 and the Education for all Campaign has been largely about access rather than quality (including the provision of a safe learning environment). To deal with the issue of child abuse, there is the need to adopt a participatory approach. This process calls for a new set of approaches that will seriously take into consideration the perspectives of the local people.
