Woodcraft Folk is committed to the United Nations’ Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). This commitment underpins the organisation’s engagement in the IFM-SEI Kids Got Rights project, which aims to raise the awareness of young people and adult about the Rights of the Child.
The Scottish Government has produced a short, self-led training resource to introduce the UNCRC and explore how it is enshrined in Scotland’s law and public policy. This can be downloaded from this page or accessed via the gov.scot website. The training takes around 20 minutes to complete and is aimed at young people, parents/carers, and volunteers working with young people.
Group and individual activities exploring the theme of children’s rights in an age-appropriate way can be found in the activity catalogue, as well as on the Dream Big At Home site.
