Eurochild
An overview of the European Union's child rights priorities 2024-2029. This will include an analysis of the Speech by President-elect of the presentation of upcoming College of Commissioners and their programme in November 2024.
Eurochild are striving for a society where all children and young people grow up happy, healthy, confident and respected as individuals in their own right. We aim to bring about positive changes in the lives of children, in particular those affected by poverty and disadvantage.
We reach our goal by influencing policies, building civil society capacity, facilitating mutual learning and exchanging practice and research. Eurochild works closely with the European Union, as protecting children's rights is among the EU's aims and values.
The European Union's commitment to child rights is paramount, and strengthening a commitment to child rights is essential, as it forms the cornerstone of ensuring the well-being and protection of children across member states. This session will provide an overview of the European Union's child rights priorities 2024-2029. This will include an analysis of the Speech by President-elect of the presentation of upcoming College of Commissioners and their programme in November 2024. We will identify the key priorities in regards to children's rights, the opportunities and milestones for child participation and civil society engagement on both EU and national levels.
The specific focus will be given to children's rights, poverty and social exclusion, the European Child Guarantee, the European Semester, and child participation.
