“…The intricacy of judicial procedures can be daunting (Claasen and Spies, 2017). The complexities of presenting evidence, court decorum, and legal terminology can only be overwhelming to someone who has already dealt with the legal system (Bogachev, Nazirova and Shelkopliasova, 2021).…”

This ground-breaking study reveals the formidable challenges that illiterate women face in accessing justice in Bangladesh's southern char areas. This study identified vital impediments to justice access through focused discussions in Char Montaj, Char Biswas, and Char Kajal: illiteracy, legal ignorance, perplexing court procedures, economic hardships, communication issues, superstitions, religious influences, and unclear complaint processes. This research emphasizes the critical need for focused interventions, calling for customized legal literacy programs, streamlined court procedures, economic assistance, enhanced infrastructure, and community awareness campaigns. These findings point to equal justice for a disadvantaged community, which aligns with SDG 16.

Sanders and Mace (2006) propose engaging children in transforming these spaces.…”

The children's rights and child protection sectors are at a critical juncture: will they evolve to reflect and respond to changing conceptualisations in the 21st century or will they continue to reproduce 19th- and 20th-century preoccupations with saving child victims? Informed by systematic reviews of the English- and Latin American academic literature in Spanish and Portuguese and key informant interviews with international stakeholders, this paper fosters global dialogue with some Global South and Global North perspectives about the interconnections of children's rights. It explores current conceptualisations of child participation and protection, and concludes that children's rights will only progress after recognition of limitations inherent to current conceptualisations.
