ABSTRACT
It is widely accepted that human rights are interrelated and interdependent (Alston, 1994; International Commission of Jurists et al., 1997; United Nations General Assembly, 1986; World Conference on Human Rights, 1993). Not only does the realization of particular rights depend on the fulfillment of others-for example, children’s education rights depend, in part, on realization of their health rights-but the rights of certain individuals are tied to the rights of others. Children’s rights and women’s rights are linked in this way.
