    Assessing the Legal Framework and Institutional impediments in protecting the Rights of Street Children in Zambia: A study of Lusaka Urban
    (2015) MULENGA, Oswald
    This dissertation focused on assessing the legal a frame work and institutional efficacy in a bid to protect the rights of street children as enshrined in the Universal Declaration for Human Rights of 1948 and the African Charter of Human and Peoples Rights of 1981. The objective of this research was to audit and assess the laws which are child protection related. Inter alia, the major challenge discovered is the lacuna and discrepancy between effective law regime and the ineffective enforcement regime of the same. The study also reveals that to curb this iniquity there is need to adopt an institutionalized integrated purposeful legal approach.
