Focus On Children's Rights-A Welcome Move

Representatives from the two entities have been hard at work scheduling meetings with political parties, the first step being to establish a working relationship that will see children’s rights adequately addressed in the parties’ manisfestos.

The voices of the little ones are not catered for in policy-making, and other decisions that affect them.
