Save the Children UK’s ‘Gaining Respect’ report analyses justice systems through the lens of children’s lived experiences. Drawing on participatory research in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, it reveals structural barriers and discriminatory practices faced by children in conflict with the law. The report calls for evidence-based reform rooted in human rights principles, participation, and restorative justice. Its findings provide policymakers, practitioners, and civil society with clear recommendations for child-sensitive justice frameworks worldwide.
