A big thank you to all our members, children and young people for their responses to our recent survey on urgent issues which effect children and young people in Scotland. Your responses will help us write a report to the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, highlighting what the Scottish and UK governments should be doing to better respect, protect and fulfil children’s rights.
Charlotte Cooper, Campaigns Coordinator at CRIN, gives an update of their campaign to end recruitment of children by the British armed forces. She writes about their activities in the first half of 2022.
Gregor, a participant in our Rights Right Now! project, has been featured in the recent edition of Enable magazine! He talks about his involvement in the project, which aimed to support meaningful and inclusive participation of children and young people as Scotland moves to incorporate the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC).
The Year of Childhood 2021 saw the passage of the UNCRC Incorporation Bill and Children’s Parliament’s 25th birthday. During the year, Children’s Parliament explored childhood through the lens of children’s human rights, raising awareness and understanding amongst the adult workforce.
