Organisations and institutions

Organisations and institutions, big and small, local, regional, and global, can make an incredible impact on the lives of children.

Want to invest in children and young people’s well-being and skills development to give them a better chance in life now and in the future?

You can

  • Strengthen the voices of children and young people and reflect their priorities in your strategies, policies, and projects.

  • Provide children and young people with the opportunity to learn and develop important life skills and confidence that help them reach their full potential in life.

  • Ensure that your strategies, programs and services are fit for purpose, cost efficient, and reflect the best interest of the child.

  • Ensure that all engagement with children and young people is safe by developing safeguarding policies and building safeguarding capacity within your organisation.

Why do we need child- and youth-friendly governance?

Children and young people today face major challenges - and they should have a say in solving them.
