The recent legislative changes in England and Wales have posed significant challenges to children's ability to exercise their fundamental rights under Article 12 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). These changes have eroded their right to information, consultation, and representation when their parents separate. However, there is a potential avenue for children to have their voices heard and their concerns addressed through child-inclusive mediation (CIM).
From a children's rights perspective, this book offers a critical socio-legal analysis of CIM practice. It draws upon in-depth interviews with relationship professionals, mediators, parents, and children to explore their experiences, risks, and benefits. The book investigates the barriers to greater uptake of CIM and its potential role in improving children's well-being and agency.
The book also examines the culture and practice changes necessary for a more routine application of CIM. It demonstrates how reconceptualizing CIM through a children's rights framework can help to address these barriers and enhance outcomes for children.
In conclusion, this book provides valuable insights into the experiences, risks, and benefits of CIM from a children's rights perspective. It highlights the need for greater awareness, support, and recognition of CIM as a tool to promote children's rights and well-being in the context of family separation. By reconceptualizing CIM through a children's rights framework, we can work towards creating a more child-friendly and inclusive mediation process that ensures children's voices are heard and their interests protected.
