The integration of child rights education within Cameroonian universities currently faces significant limitations, characterized by fragmented and narrow approaches largely confined to legal perspectives within specific disciplines such as law, education, and social sciences. Child rights are primarily addressed as elective courses, emphasizing legal frameworks such as international conventions or public policy, which restricts a holistic understanding of child rights as a multidisciplinary field encompassing social, psychological, developmental, and policy dimensions. Consequently, graduates from critical sectors such as education, health, social work, and governance levels may lack comprehensive training to effectively advocate for and implement child rights within their professional roles.
Given the interdisciplinary and evolving nature of child rights, it is essential to transition from isolated legal frameworks to a structured, interdisciplinary educational model at both university level. This assignment aims to institutionalize a comprehensive child rights curriculum across Cameroonian universities facilitating the development and integration of tailored syllabi and curricula reflecting the multifaceted aspects of child rights. This structured approach will equip future professionals and educators with extensive knowledge and practical skills, enabling them to champion child rights effectively in alignment with national policies, international standards, and Cameroon’s broader developmental objectives.
