The 4th Forum on the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child (ACRWC) was held between 18 and 20 March 2011 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

Final report from the 2010 edition of the International Interdisciplinary Course On Children’s Rights. 

The fifth conference "Child in the City" will further build on the ideas of the former events with themes like children's participation, space for children, children's mobility and assessment tolls. Inspired by the "European Year for combating poverty and social exclusion" it will widen its scope to include another very important theme of the CRC: child poverty.
