Preferred term

street children  

Definition

  • Street children should be understood in light of a growing global discourse on child labor and children's rights. The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child—which stipulates that children have the right to be protected from hazardous work— was drawn up in 1989 and was ratified by all UN member countries except two.
