Children's Participation in Global Contexts

Going Beyond Voice

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book offers an analysis of children's participation in formal, collective and participatory processes in six different international settings with a view to extending our learning about what helps or facilitates children and young people's participation in decision-making to effect change. It considers the implications of this for the development of policy and practice around participation. This analysis is set in the context of historical and current discourses of participation, childhood studies, education and international development. It promotes an approach to children's participation as relational, capacity building, and collaborative.
