FOCUS


Respect for the views of the child

Children reported that the digital environment afforded them crucial opportunities for their voices to be heard in matters that affected them.

The use of digital technologies can help to realize children’s participation at the local, national and international levels.

Therefore, awareness of, and access to, digital means for children to express their views must be promoted and support for children must be offered.
