Your final chapter discusses the fact that in the last 100 years children's rights improved significantly. Based on your this semester, what is one area that has most dramatically improved on a global level (with regard to children's rights) and why? Which area is in dire need of improvement, and why? Identify and explain cultural, political and societal advocacy issues in various counties that effect the safety and well-being of children. (Note- in the interest of covering all aspects of this question, consider providing an example of each issue and describe each issue well.). * HINT- I am asking for a lot of information in this question. You WILL NOT be able to answer this question in one paragraph. Try to give specific examples.

Question 2:

What kind of advocacy skills, tools and organizations are needed to best advocate for a female child or adult victim of violence? (Please think about our lecture on Violence Against Women (VAG). Think about cultural context, what YOU can do, and other ways to support and help (i.e. organizations).

Question 3:

The short documentary I had you watch (Voices of Children) really forced you to watch. It did not tell you a bunch of information. It did not tell you what to think. it asked you to look at lives of children through their eyes. These children were represented through many areas of the world. For you, what were two of the biggest take-aways from this documentary? (As an aside, I am going to ask that you think critically about this documentary as opposed to being frustrated that you were not just "given" information. Remember, if you work with children, or are advocating for children, this might be the most information you can get from them about their experiences)

Part II: In your own reflection, described your own increased understanding of the lives of children growing up various countries outside of North America. (In short, what do you now know that you did not know and understand before about child rights and child maltreatment globally?) Show me some things you learned or realized this semester.
