What wonderful perspectives explored by a expect panel on critical children's rights. So much to be thinking about and drawing it towards my work around youngest children's rights.

Prof Jane Murray challenges us to confront the gap between the promise of the UNCRC and today’s realities.

Protection. Provision. Participation. For all children, from the very start.

My fabulous colleague from @swanseauni.bsky.social the wonderful Jane Williams presenting at our CREY network bi-annual conference.

Children in Wales @childreninwales.org.uk · May 21

Mae’r Athro Jane Williams yn ein hatgoffa bod arfer sy'n seiliedig ar ymchwil yn golygu defnyddio ymchwil a hawliau plant i arwain gwaith blynyddoedd cynnar. Mae hawliau'n llywio sut rydym yn deall ymchwil, yn dylanwadu ar weithredoedd, ac yn adlewyrchu gwerthoedd craidd.

What a busy and exciting week so far with our visitors from Ecuador, planning future research and writing papers around child agency and self determination. Then today some fascinating talks from our visiting colleagues as part of #CenPrac @swanseauni.bsky.social centre for research into practice.

The @childpart.bsky.social team talking to @lauralundy.bsky.social whose model we (and many others) have used in our research around #childadvisorygroup #BECERA2025. So many ideas to take away and do some thinking.
