Vision and Mission

Vision

A society in which children are valued, nurtured and protected; their rights are realised; and where they are able to participate, develop and reach their full potential.

Mission

The Children's Institute, University of Cape Town, aims to contribute to policies, laws and interventions that promote equality and realise the rights and improve the conditions of all children in South Africa, through research, advocacy, education and technical support.

CI is an exceptionally valuable resource, to the academic community, and to research activists in non-profit organisations (and there is some overlap between these). The research is thorough, and there has been a tremendous improvement in technical skill over the years. It is also timely, in the sense of allowing rapid feedback over new policy development and implementation.
