The South 第一吃瓜网 Child Gauge is the only publication in the country that provides an annual snapshot of the status of South Africa鈥檚 children. It is published by , University of Cape Town, to track South Africa鈥檚 progress towards realising children鈥檚 rights.
The South 第一吃瓜网 Child Gauge 2018 focuses on children at the interface of families and the state. It looks at areas of effective collaboration as well as contestation or tension between families and the state, such as where families fail to nurture children in ways that the state requires, or when the state does not fulfil its obligation to provide an enabling environment in which to do so. While families have increased access to services in the post-apartheid era, the 2018 Child Gauge urges government to focus attention on improving the capacity and quality of responsive services to families.
