Millions of children around the world today are living in new family arrangements. Others are confronting significant obstacles that impede their ability to grow up in caring family environments. Still other children face barriers to education and other opportunities, increasing pressure on them to migrate. This program will explore the impact of globalization on the roles children play in their families and communities and on the roles played by those who care for and raise children. Topics discussed will include barriers to the international movement of children, the experiences of children as independent actors, the growing trend of intergenerational caregiving, and other changing dynamics within the family due to pressures exerted by globalization. The program will draw upon international and comparative law perspectives, as well as examples from the United States.'
