Join us for our Community of Practice Session with special guest Donna Munro, Lead Officer from Highland Child Protection Committee
Donna will present a joint piece of work she conducted with Carrie McLaughlin around working with young people that had been perceived as ‘hard to reach’ who would have experienced trauma, she will explain the approaches used, show some of the ‘voice’ that was able to be gathered using a tool that they had developed incorporating articles of the UNCRC to facilitate discussion points with young people in a non judgemental way.
Connect with practitioners across Highland, and hear from local and national voices, to explore how we can meaningfully embed the Highland Children & Young People Participation Strategy in everyday practice.
Monthly sessions will include:
- Presentations from local or national speakers
- Q&A to deepen understanding
- Time for conversation, networking and informal sharing to support collaboration across Highland
Together, we’ll look at how others are working with children and young people to bring the Strategy to life and strengthen participation across services.
Our work is underpinned by the Lundy Model of Participation, the UNCRC, GIRFEC, and The Promise.
Supporting rights‑based, inclusive and relational practice.
Open to all practitioners engaging with children and young people across Highland.
