ABSTRACT

This paper investigates the barriers that impede the implementation of child rights in Bangladesh and presents strategies for effective solutions. Employing a mixed-methods approach encompassing qualitative interviews, surveys, and policy analysis, this study examines the legal, social, cultural, and institutional challenges that hinder the realization of child rights. By shedding light on these obstacles, the research aims to offer evidence-based insights and practical recommendations that can strengthen the implementation of child rights, ultimately enhancing the well-being and empowerment of children in Bangladesh. The findings of this study contribute to the existing body of knowledge on child rights and provide valuable guidance for policymakers, practitioners, and advocates working towards creating a child-friendly environment in Bangladesh. By addressing the identified barriers and implementing the proposed strategies, it is possible to foster an environment that upholds the rights of children, ensuring their protection, participation, provision, and development. Ultimately, the successful implementation of child rights will contribute to the overall progress and prosperity of Bangladesh as a nation.
