The ABC has selected the work of A/Prof Kathy Cologon to profile for National Children’s Week (18-26 October). Congratulations Kathy!
National Children’s Week celebrates the rights, voices, and contributions of children. It’s a reminder to pause and truly listen to what children are telling us – about inclusion, belonging, and what it means to be seen and valued. In this powerful reflection, contributing author, Associate Professor Kathy Cologon, shares insights from research that centres children’s voices and experiences. Through art and conversation, children speak to the importance of being included, the strength of diversity, and the simple but profound truth that difference is not a deficit.
