아동정책의 현재와 미래

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate new directions and paradigms for child policy in Korea. The paper also discusses the theoretical background of the influence of such policies upon the lives of children. Any new paradigm thus established should be based on the UN Convention on the Rights of the Children (CRC), and in addition, appropriate government support should be provided for all families and children regardless of their socio-economic status. The goal of such a child policy is to promote and protect the well-being of children in Korea and inspire excellence among those adults responsible for protecting and nurturing these children. Clearly, more effort and attention needs to be expended in order to achieve these aims.
