Tusla

Tusla is strongly committed to the principle and practice of children's participation. Reflecting this, the Children's Charter was developed in consultation with children and young people. Following a review of children's charters from Ireland and elsewhere, consultations were held with four Tusla sponsored groups, one from each Tusla region. Approximately 50 children and young people aged between 9 and 17 years took part in these consultations. The charters were developed using the 'Lundy Model of Participation' with children and young people.
