One of her most powerful reminders cut through the entire room:
“Children’s rights are not an ideology. They are good governance, better decision-making and stronger accountability for everyone.” #UNCRCScotland
Her message was clear: transformation is possible, but only when children are at the centre, and when every part of society commits to acting together #UNCRCScotland
The keynote speaker, Juliet Harris, Director of Together, offered a compelling account of Scotland’s decades-long movement to embed the UNCRC across policy, legislation, & everyday decision-making #UNCRCScotland
The event brought together leaders, practitioners, advocates & young people to explore what it truly takes to make children’s rights real, in practice, in culture, & in law #UNCRCScotland
