Sweden's social democracy spirit and its success story about children rights

Tokyay, Menekse
This paper examines the role of grassroots activities in Sweden concerning children rights protection and how the country has become a role model for the whole world in terms of human development and children rights, with special reference to the best practices they have elaborated throughout their history in order to tackle each specific problem regarding children who are classified as full human beings having the same rights as adults. This paper emphasizes that the Swedish children’s rights’ protection model should become a reference point for all other countries, including Turkey, in improving policy paradigms and ways of doing things when incorporating grassroots organizations’ energy and innovation into the problem-solving mechanisms.
