Article 19 is a dedicated journal highlighting issues related to all forms of corporal punishment of children. It seeks to promote positive forms of discipline and the abolition of corporal punishment to ensure the realisation of children's rights to dignity and physical integrity. The journal aims to serve as a mechanism through which diverse and relevant information advocating the prohibition of all forms of corporal punishment of children in South Africa and on the African continent can be disseminated. It is published every four months by the Children's Rights Project at the Community Law Centre.
