Child Participation
Below you can find a list of global indicators relating to Child Participation, a SCI Cross-Cutting Theme.
Every child has the fundamental right to express their views freely and have them taken seriously.
For Save the Children, child participation is about respecting and valuing the child as a rights holder; recognising their right to be heard, freely engage in civic action, influence decisions that affect them, and hold decision makers to account. Child participation ensures quality programming designed to deliver solutions that address the violations of child rights.
Building Child Participation involves strategically investing in structures, capabilities, systems and opportunities for meaningful participation and effective voice of children.
