SEMINAR ABOUT EMPOWERING CHILDREN
September 2023

The Department of Sociology of Law at University of Lund arranged important conference days last week. We were lucky to witness the seminar “Empowering children and youth through Law and Participation”, with researchers from Brazil, Colombia, Vietnam, India, Ethiopia, Sweden, Denmark and Norway

Very exciting to hear about how children’s participation has different challenges around the world, and how researchers see possibilities for coming closer to genuine, meaningful and equal participation for children. To achieve that, we must dare to ask questions about how adults can prevent or promote children becoming equal citizens

Thank you for wonderful days, especially to Mimi Petersen from Copenhagen and the organisers: Anna Sonander and Per Wickenberg from the University of Lund
