Exploring the National Framework for Children and Young People’s Participation in Decision Making, with Prof Laura Lundy and Anne O'Donnell
Welcome back to a new season of Early Childhood Ireland’s podcast. In the first episode of this new season, we have a bumper edition, as we are honoured to welcome Professor Laura Lundy and Anne O’Donnell who developed the National Framework for Children and Young People’s Participation in Decision Making. It’s a fascinating discussion about why and how we involve children in decision making in settings. You can check out the Podcast here. And do also read the Framework and look at the great checklists that you can use as you develop your practice in this key area.
