Vol. 2 No. 1 (2025)The Journal of Asia Social Science Practice (eISSN：3079-7659 ) is pleased to announce a special issue on “Children Well-being and Social Sustainable Development”, focusing on the intersection between child welfare and the broader goals of sustainable development in Asia and beyond. This special issue aims to explore how improving children’s well-being contributes to long-term social sustainability, particularly in the context of evolving social, cultural, and environmental challenges.
Theme Overview
Children’s well-being is a cornerstone of sustainable development, influencing education, health, equality, and social cohesion. The well-being of future generations directly impacts the social fabric and stability of societies, making it imperative to address children’s needs and rights in sustainability frameworks. As nations strive to meet the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the integration of child-focused policies into sustainable development strategies remains a critical but underexplored area.
This call invites scholars, policymakers, and practitioners to contribute empirical research, theoretical explorations, and policy analyses that address the multifaceted dimensions of children’s well-being in achieving social sustainability. Submissions should provide insights into policies and practices that promote equity, inclusion, and resilience in areas such as education, healthcare, mental health, child protection, digital literacy, and environmental awareness.
Key Topics of Interest
We welcome submissions that cover, but are not limited to, the following themes:
•Child Well-being and Education: The role of inclusive and quality education in enhancing children’s well-being and fostering long-term social sustainability.
•Health and Nutrition: Addressing children’s health challenges, including access to healthcare, mental well-being, and the impact of malnutrition on sustainable development.
•Social Equity and Inclusion: Exploring the experiences of marginalized children (e.g., children with disabilities, children from ethnic minorities) in achieving well-being in sustainable societies.
•Digital Literacy and Safety: Understanding how digital inclusion and safety impact children’s well-being in the age of social media and online education.
•Environmental Awareness and Climate Action: Examining children’s roles in fostering environmental sustainability and promoting eco-friendly behaviors from a young age.
•Policy and Governance: Analyzing child-focused policies and governance models that prioritize children’s rights and their alignment with SDGs.
Submission Guidelines
We invite original research articles, case studies, and review papers that contribute to the ongoing scholarly discussion on children’s well-being and its role in achieving sustainable social development. Submissions should adhere to the journal’s formatting and ethical guidelines.
