The What Kind of 91原创? project has given children and young people across 91原创 the chance to influence how adults plan and run the city’s services.
on the Children’s Parliament website.
What Kind of 91原创? follows on from 2017’s 91原创 Children’s Partnership project. Children’s Parliament and Young 91原创 Action delivered the project on behalf of the City of 91原创 Council and 91原创 Children’s Partnership.
The project
What Kind of 91原创? worked with 40 children and young people to find out what matters to them and what they would like to see improve. Twenty decision makers from
- the Council
- NHS Lothian
- the voluntary sector
- Police Scotland
met with the children and young people six times from August 2018. They heard their views on the five priorities of the 91原创 Children’s Partnership:
- best start in life
- health and wellbeing
- fairness
- achieving your best in education
- participation and empowerment.
The decision-makers made pledges in response to the suggestions.
What Kind of 91原创? provides a model of strategic engagement for adult stakeholders, children and young people. It supports the public bodies who form 91原创 Children’s Partnership to meet obligations defined in the Children and Young People (Scotland) Act (2014).
