UNCRC Implementation Fund

Building a Skills and Knowledge Framework and Training Plan about the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child

Collaborators

With funding from the Scottish Government, we are working with Children’s Parliament, Together, JustRight Scotland and the Observatory on Human Rights of Children. Our role is to co-ordinate the project and bring our learning and digital expertise.

Deliverables

We are collaborating to create: 

  1. A Skills and Knowledge Framework to ensure the public sector workforce, public service providers and wider duty bearers like families understand what the law means for them 
  2. A Training Plan to help people organising training to cover the key points and recognise quality 
  3. Resources about the UNCRC to signpost existing resources and to fill the gaps 
  4. A digital space for the materials to make them available to everyone across Scotland

Dates

The project runs between August 2022 and March 2024.

How you can get involved

Further information about the project

We are working with two groups to collaborate on the Skills and Knowledge Framework: 

  • A group of children and families. 

Our aim is to harness and learn from the experiences and expertise of children, families and practitioners.  

We want to ensure that the framework and training plan support duty-bearers in Scotland to uphold children’s rights, and for children to have their rights respected, protected and fulfilled in their daily lives.
