Children play a vital role in society in the future of generations to come. With this crucial role, it’s important to ensure that their rights are upheld in the best way possible. The Children’s Court in South Africa is a specialised legal entity established under the Children’s Act of 2005 (Act 38 of 2005), containing 22 chapters. It plays a crucial role in protecting the best interests of minors and ensuring the well-being of children in need of care and protection.
