520 _aThe United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) was launched in 1989 and is ratified in most countries. The UNCRC is considered by child welfare authorities worldwide to be an essential document that aims to improve the rights of children. However, contemporary research indicates that the UNCRC is an obstacle to social work because it emphasizes the legal equality between children and adults. This finding prompts the question of how Western child protection agencies conduct child protection encounters with families with a non-Western ethnic background. The present article aims to examine if specific articles in the UNCRC can serve as a medium for improving social work with ethnic minority families within the child protection sector in Sweden. This article is based on a research project concerning youths with an ethnic minority background in out-of-home care. Relevant articles in the UNCRC are revealed to be potentially helpful to child protection programmes involving ethnic minority families because these articles emphasize considering the perspective of the child and strengthening parenting skills. However, child protection agencies must consider how the UNCRC can be used to teach parents or guardians to understand and acknowledge the perspective of the child without violating the values of the family.
520 _a1989年推出的《聯合國兒童權利公約》在大多數國家獲得批准。世界各地的兒童福利機構都把該公約當作改善兒童權利的重要文件。然而,近年的研究發現,該公約對於社會工作是一個障礙,因為它重點強調兒童與成人之間法律上的平等。這一研究發現質疑了西方兒童保護機構為非西方背景的少數民族家庭提供的兒童保護措施。本文旨在探討該公約的具體條款是否可以在瑞典的兒童保護部門發揮作用,改善少數民族家庭的社會工作服務。本文資料來源於一項關於少數民族家庭青少年托管研究項目。一些《聯合國兒童保護公約》的相關條約對於少數民族家庭背景的兒童保護項目是有幫助的,因為這些條約強調了從兒童的視角看問題,強化親子技巧。然而,兒童保護機構必須考慮聯合國兒童保護條約如何可以被用來教導父母或監護人,讓他們理解並認可從兒童視角看問題的重要性,同時又不冒犯到這些家庭的價值觀。
