Children’s Parliament is Scotland’s centre of excellence for children’s participation and engagement. Our dream is that children grow up in a world of love, happiness and understanding. Our mission is to inspire greater awareness and understanding of the power of children’s human rights and to support implementation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) across Scotland. We work with partners to evidence how a children’s human rights approach improves outcomes for children.
This accessible leaflet provides an introduction to Children’s Parliament.

“This is what effective participation looks like. This is what we are trying to get governments to understand and do.”
