I have been invited to speak with Prof Yvonne Wren at the UNICEF UK Child Rights Academic Research Network meeting on June 18th at 1-3pm focusing on child/youth voice. Our talk is titled "Ensuring all children have a voice: Upholding a child’s right to communicate in the context of speech, language and communication needs"
Huong Le (UNICEF, UK) indicated that while the network primarily aims to focus on work being undertaken in the UK they welcome learning and research from other parts of the world as well.
The brief is to:
1. Provide a brief overview of your research on child/youth voice
2. What are the key findings?
3. What are the implications of your research for those working in practice?
4. (Optional fourth question) What are the implications of your research for promoting children's rights?
