Article 42 of the convention states that Government should make the convention known to all parents and children. In line with this article, a key objective of the Welsh Assembly Government is to increase awareness of the UNCRC.
A recent mapping exercise of existing resources specifically aimed at promoting and raising awareness of the UNCRC has identified a number of gaps in provision. The toolkit that has been developed is a general resource and further specific resources will be developed in due course.

We know that awareness of the UNCRC in Wales is low and so we have started to look at ways in which we can make more people aware of it. As a start to this we have pulled together a number of useful
resources that can help you to raise awareness of the UNCRC and this includes this
toolkit which can help everyone to or learn more about
The Convention.
We have been working with a number of organisations and groups over the past few months piloting the
Awareness Raising Toolkit. See an example of the toolkit being
used in practice.

To mark the 20th anniversary of UNCRC we’re challenging children and young people in Wales to come up with their own ideas on how to achieve the aims of this historic agreement over the next 20 years.
This exciting competition has separate categories for primary school pupils and for teenagers and young adults. Click below for more details:

We would welcome any
suggestions you have about how
we could make the
Awareness Raising Toolkit even better. We are currently looking at developing a whole range of resources in this area so watch this space!
We will soon have a blog on the website where you can view all feedback. A feedback form is available
here.
