This document discusses a human rights-based approach to comprehensive and holistic legislative reform on behalf of children's rights. It argues that such an approach must recognize children as rights holders, take a holistic view of civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights, and involve stakeholders in the reform process. The key principles of a human rights-based approach include universality of rights, interdependence and indivisibility of rights, non-discrimination, participation, and accountability. Legislative reform following these principles would result in a legal framework that effectively protects all children and enables the realization of all their rights.
