Justice for Children Policy Brief: Building New Partnerships

Inspiring Children’s Futures is delighted to present the Working Group on SDG16+ Justice for Children Policy Brief: Building New Partnerships.

This Policy Brief outlines ‘ingredients’ for meaningful intergenerational and intersectional partnerships, prompting questions and actions for policymakers, and case study examples which highlight promising practice with children and young people in the context of justice.

In 2022, the SDG16+ Working Group on Justice for Children published the Justice for Children Agenda for Action to implement change across four key strategic levers needed to accelerate change for children:

1. Building new types of partnerships, including intergenerational networks.

2. Developing strategies for smarter financing; building the case to shift investment to children’s inclusion and well-being, and the political support for prevention.

3. Using evidence and data to steer child-centred reforms, including disaggregated data, child friendly methodologies and child-centred views to drive change.

4. Scaling up justice innovations, and applying imagination and safeguards for digital justice tools with children.

The themes of these key strategic levers form the basis of our four Policy Briefs. Stay tuned for Policy Brief: Evidence and Data!
