QUESTION 1
INTRODUCTION
In providing services for children, social workers operate under a framework grounded in
philosophical assumptions that emphasize the importance of human dignity and non-
discrimination, the best interests of the child, and active participation of the child in
decisions affecting their lives. These principles are universally recognized in documents
such as the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), the African
Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child (ACRWC), and the South African
Constitution. This essay elucidates how a social worker can protect a child's rights by
emphasizing participation, the best interest of the child, and dignity throughout child
protection services, supplemented by practical examples of interventions.
