To help inform the UN Committee, the four UK Children’s Commissioners offices (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland & Wales) wanted to provide the Committee with children and young people’s voices about their experiences on the delivery of their rights on a day-to-day basis. This report is based on engagement with children and young people by Participation staff of the four Nations. Its key objective is to influence the UN Committee on the list of issues affecting children and young people in the UK.
