The Child in the City International Seminar took place on 19 & 20 May 2022 and presented the latest knowledge and insights on involving children in mainstream urban planning policies.
Are children and young people being heard when it comes to developing national and local policies? What measures can and should be taken to protect their rights and participation during the post pandemic age? How can we ask children and how they could be heard to make their rights mainstream in local policy planning? These and other important questions were discussed during the inspiring keynote sessions and interactive workshops.
Field experts got together to share their experience on how we can involve children in policy and practice development. 30 speakers from all over the world shared the latest projects, research and local case stories during two-day seminar programme.
