dc.description | This booklet has been prepared to assist Christian groups ( e.g., Youth groups, Justice and Peace groups, Bible Study groups, Small Christian Communities, Fellowship groups, etc.) to learn more about what the Church Social Teaching (CST) and Scriptures say about the rights of children. It is designed as a study guide consisting of four sessions, which can be taken slowly without rushing through the process. | en |
dc.description.abstract | In most societies, there is great importance and value attached to children, although this varies between and within societies or cultures. In many parts of Africa, children represent both lineage continuity and material survival of communities. Children are
viewed as a source of support for those in need, particularly the elderly in society. Among the Dinka and Nuer people of Southern Sudan, for example, children are the main reason for everything a family does. For these people, a man who dies without surviving
children, dies a complete death and is accorded no permanent place in the male ancestry. | en |
