Save the Children has published a new and updated version of the Nine Basic Requirements for Meaningful and Ethical Child Participation. This is a key tool to guarantee high-quality child participation and will help to advance children’s participation rights in any initiatives with children. The Guide has evolved for over two decades and is based on what children have shared with adults over the course of many years. The material includes checklists and basic tools and is presented in an easy-to-read, colorful manner.
The guide is also available in French, Spanish and Arabic .
Also included within the tools is a preliminary set of ‘mini guides’ related to:
