Children's Participation in Decision Making



Hope for Children—UNCRC Policy Centre, along with the NGO Support Centre, the Olive Branch Foundation and the Commissioner’s Office for Children’s Rights, is pleased to invite you to our conference:

“Children’s Participation in Decision Making”

at the Cyprus Community Media Centre (CCMC)

on September 25th 2010

from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

The conference forms part of “The Children of Cyprus and Human Rights” project, supported by the EEA Grant. Speakers include representatives the Republic of Cyprus, the Separated Children in Europe Program (SCEP), Save the Children and Brunel University UK. The discussion will be followed by a workshop, which will include children, NGO workers, and teachers.

Through this conference, we aim to show how the participation of children in the decision-making process can be put into practice. It is addressed to everyone in roles of public leadership and service.

We will cover definitions and concepts of children’s participation and how this is stipulated in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child; the importance of children’s participation as well as when it is needed; how public leaders, such as legislators, administrators and the media, can play a tangible role in promoting children’s participation and improving it its efficacy.

We would be pleased and honored by your presence.

For further information and RSVP, please contact Hope for Children—UNCRC Policy Centre at on info@uncrcpc.org or call us at 22-103234.

If you could help us please let us know.

Kind regards
