Our Child Participation Program aims to promote children’s right to participate in issues affecting them in a meaningful way – let it be in school, family, public decision making or in other settings. This is done partly by developing child-friendly materials and informing children about their rights and about expressing their opinions safely. But many of our activities try to encourage adults to involve children, listen to the their perspectives and prevent the manipulative, decorative or tokenistic participatory practices. We also share case studies and methodology descriptions about how we work with children, and launch researches to learn about children’s views.
