A framework for monitoring and evaluating children’s participation. A preparatory draft for piloting

As a response to the need to develop approaches to monitoring and evaluating children’s participation, here is a chance to take part in a pilot study to test out new materials, supported by a toolkit, for measuring children’s participation. The project is being launched by Save the Children, UNICEF, Plan International and World Vision, and is supported by the Oak Foundation. This Framework is intended to be useful for monitoring and evaluation of a variety of children’s participation processes. It is divided into two parts. Part one focuses on measuring the extent to which the environment at the national and local level is conducive to respect for children’s right to participate. Part two is concerned with measuring the scope, quality and outcomes associated with specific participation processes or initiatives.
