Guest Editorial: Women’s Rights and Children’s Rights: Challenges and Opportunities
Author(s)

Abstract
Judith L. Evans introduces the journal’s themes looking at the significant linkages between women’s rights and children’s rights. Evans argues that the two sets of rights together need to be brought forward, looking at the way they are interlinked through two conventions – CRC and CEDAW – developed in the 1990s. She presents some of the challenges and opportunities that a simultaneous focus on women’s and children’s rights presents in terms of development work.
