Ignorance of Child RightsIgnorance of child rights is prevalent in Ghana especially among illiterate populations. Dealing with the problem of child abuse or child rights violation requires a collective effort from both government and citizenry. As said earlier, dealing with issues of child rights violations requires a collective effort from both state and non-state actors. This will go a long way to promote awareness on child rights and help reduce child rights violations in Ghana. Finally, stiffer punishments and sanctions should be introduced and meted out to offenders and perpetrators of child rights violations.
