Empowerment and Participation for Children and Young People – Wednesday 5 February 11.30am-1pm – Ballina

Learn about how to empower children and young people in your organisation through active participation.

 

Our session on how to empower young people is for everyone who works with children.

 

As part of the Child Safe Scheme, all child-related organisations in NSW should apply the Child Safe Standards. Standard 2 is about making sure ‘children participate in decisions affecting them and are taken seriously’.

 

Our child safe trainers will take you through the practical skills that can help your organisation empower children and young people to speak up in your organisation, particularly around what makes them feel safe or unsafe when they are in your care.
