The Right Way to meaningful participation
From the Scottish Youth Parliament
About
‘The Right Way’ is a project run by the Scottish Youth Parliament (SYP) and funded by the Scottish Government’s Children’s Rights Unit. It aims to support and challenge adults who work with young people by helping them understand what meaningful participation looks like in practice.
Resources
These resources have been developed by young people to help ensure that Article 12 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) is respected. Here, you’ll find case studies, FAQs, online training, checklists and more.
Experiences
Young people’s experiences of meaningful participation help show the value of involving young people in spaces where decisions about their lives are made. Read some of their reflections here.
