Inspiring practices

These inspiring practices show some examples of different ways of what children’s participation can look like in practice, as well as their involvement in decision-making. They show how children’s perspectives can affect decisions that concern them as a group. They include approaches and processes that demonstrate how children’s participation can be organised, supported and translated into impact at system level.
