Together's UNCRC Training Sessions

Together offers two types of training sessions based on the content of the Children’s Rights Skills and Knowledge Framework.

We have our Taking a Children’s Human Rights Approach in Practice session, which develops your understanding of how to implement the five principles of a Children’s Human Rights Approach in your work and organisation.

We also offer sessions dedicated to each of the five principles – Embedding, Equality and Non-Discrimination, Empowerment, Participation and Accountability. These sessions are a deeper dive into how to apply each principle in your working practice and the links they have to the other four principles.  

"It was a really engaging and thought-provoking session and struck a great balance between reflection and practical ideas. I came away feeling inspired and more confident about how to embed a children’s rights approach in my work."
