This guide serves to inspire businesses and civil society organizations (CSOs) interested in respecting and supporting children’s rights and specifically, the child’s right to be heard as it relates to the ten Children’s Rights and Business Principles, which were prepared by UNICEF, the UN Global Compact, and Save the Children.

It is hoped that businesses and CSOs will reference this guide for critical information relating to children’s participation. This document also provides helpful suggestions on how business, working with civil society, might create space and opportunity for children’s participation within each principle.

Las Empresas y la Participación Infantil

Deseamos inspirar a las empresas para que vean a los niños y niñas de un modo diferente. Los niños y niñas no son simples beneficiarios de servicios y de ayudas; son actores importantes con perspectivas únicas y capaces de lograr cambios positivos para sus comunidades. Se espera que esta guía sostenga en alto la lámpara que ilumine lo que puede ser la participación y que revele por qué es importante para las empresas. Mediante hallazgos de las investigaciones, recursos y estudios de caso, esperamos demostrar las oportunidades para la acción y las posibilidades para un cambio significativo.
