Description

The Children's Code in Benin, while specifying the law applicable to the child in Benin, serves as guidelines for administrative action and code of conduct for the decision-maker.

In this perspective, and for more effectively, it is necessary that all the texts relating to the child and governing various fields, are available in a single series in order for the Beninese child to be fully informed of his rights, to be better heard and that the school and the administration refer to it.

Le Code de l’enfant au Bénin, tout en précisant le droit objectif applicable à l’enfant au Bénin, servent de guide pour l’action administrative et de code de conduite pour le décideur.

Dans cette perspective, et pour plus d’efficacité, il s’avère nécessaire que l’ensemble des textes relatifs à l’enfant, régissant divers domaines, soient disponibles dans un recueil unique pour que l’enfant béninois soit largement informé de ses droits, pour mieux se faire entendre et pour que l’école et l’administration s’y appuient.
