Presently in the United States, cognitive behavioral approaches are thought to be one of the most effective ways to intervene in the lives of young people in trouble with the law. However, such individualized approaches to youth in trouble with the law, and the risk-based logics that accompany them, say some, often ignore the relationships that young people have with caregivers, as well as the broader social ecological, economic and political contexts within which those relationships develop. Once the individual change work is completed, young people must have productive roles and supportive relationships to return to, especially if we want youth justice practice to translate into justice for youth. Given that meaningful attachments with others serve as the primary context within which individuals learn to regulate emotions and behaviors, youth justice policy and practice ought to seek to repair the capacity to attach and relate –and broader social policy reforms must address the social and economic inequalities that make the adversity and harm that undermine that capacity more likely. In this article, we discuss the limitations of over-relying on skills-based therapies and examine how the neglect of social, material and relational contexts can undermine the meaning and effectiveness of youth justice interventions. Following this, we describe how a youth justice system that attends to relational needs and structural inequalities might better meet the needs of young people. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Right to education is a universal human right and is enshrined in various international human rights standards but the main one is the Convention of the Rights of the Child, and national laws like the Children’s Act of 2005 in Uganda. The right to education is supposed to be enjoyed by every child including those in detention also known as children in conflict with the law. Kampiringisa National Rehabilitation Centre (KNRC) is temporarily mandated to house all incarcerated juveniles between the ages of 12–18 in Uganda. Apart from KNRC, Uganda has four remand homes in Fort Portal, Gulu, Naguru and Mbale. These constitute legal detention facilities in Uganda. This research examined the enjoyment of the right to education by incarcerated children in Uganda and the level of awareness of duty bearers and right holders in regards to the right to education. The findings of the study indicate that Kampiringisa still acts as the national rehabilitation centre for children despite being mandated as only a temporary detention centre by the children’s Act. Likewise, duty bearers and right claimants have scanty knowledge regarding the right to education and only limit it to going to school and acquiring knowledge.

Yaşamın temeli niteliğini taşıyan erken çocukluk döneminde ceza infaz kurumunda kalan çocukların maruz kaldığı olumsuz çocukluk çağı deneyimlerinin etkisinin yetişkinlik döneminde sorunlara yol açtığı ve sosyal konumlarının dezavantajlı olduğu bilinmektedir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, “Özgürlüğüm” projesi kapsamında, 7 kadın ceza infaz kurumunda anneleriyle kalan 0-6 yaş çocukların temel ihtiyaçlarının karşılanması ve ilişkilerinin desteklenmesi amacıyla yapılan psikososyal müdahale programına katılan annelerin, ceza infaz kurumunda büyüyen çocuklarının yaşam ortamı ve ilişkilerine dair görüşlerinin ele alınmasıdır. Çocukların gelişim düzeyine ve anne çocuk ilişki boyutuna bakılmış ve annelerin gözüyle çocuklar açısından ceza infaz kurumu koşulları ele alınmıştır. 68 anne ve 70 çocuk ile yürütülen sivil toplum projesi kapsamında annelerle yapılan grup çalışmalarından yazılı kayda alınarak elde edilen nitel veriler, ceza infaz kurumunun fiziki ve sosyal ortamının çocuklar için etkisini açıkça gözler önüne sermiştir. Annelerin söylemleri tema analizi yapılarak; cezaevi şartlarında annelik yapmak ve cezaevinde büyümek ana temalarına ulaşılmıtır. İlk ana temayla cezaevi ortamı ve annelik, mahkum anne olmak, cezaevinde anne çocuk ilişkileri ve aile içi ilişkiler alt temalarına ulaşılmış; ikinci ana temayla çocuğun gelişimsel süreçleri annelerin söylemleri aracılığıyla anlaşılmaya çalışılmıştır. Çocukların yaşıtlarına göre dil, kişisel sosyal, ince motor ve kaba motor gelişim düzeylerinin belirlenmesi için uygulanan Denver Gelişimsel Tarama Testi sonucu ceza infaz kurumundaki çocukların çoğunluğunun gelişiminin yaşıtlarına göre geride veya şüpheli olduğu bulunmuştur. Annelere uygulanan Çocuk Ana-baba ilişki Ölçeği‟ne göre ilişkide çatışma boyutunun orta düzeyde, olumlu ilişki boyutunun oldukça düşük düzeyde olduğu bulunmuştur. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre ceza infaz kurumunda annesinin yanında kalan çocuklar için hak temelli uygulamalar, hizmet odaklı uygulamalar ve boylamsal araştırmalar önerilmektedir., Early childhood experiences during living with incarcerated mother may lead to problems during adulthood and effect social position in the society as disadvantaged.
