Launched at the Taking the Rights Steps

Conference at Swansea University in 2012, the Observatory is committed to:

Developing capacity to help children and young people access their rights

Working with and learning from children and young people, respecting their "right to be properly researched"

Conducting research, data analysis and evaluative studies
Identifying and advocating for change in law and practice to give practical effect to the rights of children and young people

Harnessing the best in knowledge and innovation to support implementation of children and young people’s human rights

Working with international, national and local partners in academic institutions, professions, government and non-governmental organisations

The Children’s Legal Centre is a Wales-wide, bilingual service providing information and access to legal advice and representation for children and young people, contributing anonymised data and insights derived from service provision to the Observatory’s bank of research evidence, and advocating for reform in law, policy and practice. This project is Paul Hamlyn-funded and will be launched in August 2017.
