International Human Rights: Tentative research proposal

1. I am interested in researching something that I can relate to more such as children's rights than elders rights. One topic that interested me was education issues for children.

2. Here is a good basic link that explains some of the children's rights.

Books:
- Savage Inequalities by Jonathan Kozol.
- The Shame of the Nation: The Restoration of Apartheid Schooling in America by Jonathan Kozol.  
- There are No Children Here by Alex Kotlowitz.


3. One topic that I don't know how to find a meaningful topic to work from is divorce/marriage rights for adults (more for the different sex marriages). Like maybe child custody rights when divorce happens or something like that. This interests me because I can somewhat relate to it from my parents being divorced.
