Are you ready to transform your approach to working with children? Join us to learn how to empower children and create a more inclusive future. This innovative new course will deepen your understanding of Child Agency – a groundbreaking concept that empowers children to become confident, active decision-makers in their own lives.

Child agency is a human right that involves children having the power to make choices, share their opinions, and be part of decision-making processes. These skills grow and develop over time with practice and support.
