Description

This book is one in a series, produced in association with Save the Children UK, that looks at the impact of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. The books explore key issues affecting real-life children. Each title includes first-hand accounts of the children's own experience and shows how, with the help of Save the Children projects, they are turning rights into realities. This title looks at the right of all children to receive good healthcare, whether they are poor, homeless, disabled or have to work for a living. It shows how children need nutritious food and clean water to stay healthy, as well as health education, so that they know how to avoid illness and protect themselves against HIV and AIDS. It examines the obstacles that children sometimes have to overcome to achieve this right.
