Network Huddle: Children's Rights

Our network brings together people from all sectors across the region, such as health, education, local authorities and the voluntary and community sector, to work with children, young people and their families to make sure our work is more able to support them and have a positive impact.We believe all children and young people should be given the opportunity to flourish and reach their potential, and be advantaged by organisations working together.

This huddle will explore how honouring young children’s rights, can transform the way we work with children.

<p>Young children are often overlooked in conversations about their engagement and participation, yet research continues to demonstrate that even the very youngest of children can offer powerful insights into their own lives, experiences, and needs. This huddle will explore how honouring young children’s rights, particularly their right to be heard and participate, can transform not only the way we work with children, but also the quality and depth of research studies.</p><p>In this huddle, we will talk about the importance of children’s rights, followed by a project that focused on upholding children’s rights through co-designing qualitative interview methods to explore their transition into formal education. The project demonstrated the children’s ability to be reflective when given meaningful opportunities to participate. Their involvement not only shaped the research tools themselves but enriched the understanding of transition in ways that adult-designed approaches might have missed. The session will reflect on what made their involvement so valuable, what was learned through the process, and how these lessons can inform wider practice across early years settings and research.</p>
