WG3 | PPL policies and their significance for children’s development and well-being
Leader: Guðný Björk Eydal
Substitute Leader: Thordis Reimer
Challenges of WG3:
WG3 corresponds to the past Action A19 ‘Children’s Welfare’, which was dedicated to understanding the relationship between welfare states and children’s rights. The Action expands the findings and discussions of Action A19 by focussing on PPL policy design and its consequences for children’s development and well-being. This focus is innovative and aims at filling a current research and discussion gap.
Tasks and Activities of WG3:
1. Contact European child protection / children's rights organisations and seek collaboration.
2. Identify PPL policy design dimensions and characteristics relevant to children’s development and children’s rights.
3. Collaborate on a proposal for a research project investigating the significance of PPL for children with members from at least 4 European countries and participation of at least 50% ITCs.
