Particpation: Spice it up!

This book is aimed at anyone who wishes to consult or involve children and young people in any setting. The first part sets the scene of what this book is about and the definitions and background to participation. The second part outlines the values underpinning the work, of co-operation, participation, inclusion and involvement. It raises issues to consider, such as, why involve children and young people, what the children and young people will get out of it, questions around resource limitations, and who should be involved.
