As part of our work on promoting children’s #VoiceAndAgency, the film stems from the Amplifying Care-Experienced Voices project. The project is a collab with staff & care-experienced youth from the orgs Mamelani (South Africa) & @voypic.bsky.social (Northern Ireland), and Queens University Belfast.

Prof Julia Sloth Nielsen, ex-ACERWC, at the International Child and Families Research Conference. "Children's rights have never been under such threat." It is time to stand together, protect the gains we have made, and forge a path ahead that ensures social justice for all children.

Nomahlubi wants to be a doctor one day but without a birth certificate she’s suffered exclusion from education & social grants. Now, Home Affairs is being taken to task by the Children's Institute & @lrc.org.za over the backlog that’s robbing 1000s of basic rights www.timeslive.co.za/sunday-times...
