Children's Parliament

As Scotland gets to grips with its commitment to becoming a nation that places children’s rights at its heart, we share our Wee Book of Promises childrensparliament.org.uk/wp-content/upl… as a starting point to support new conversations in homes, workplaces and within communities

Thank you @ClackmannanPS & @Creative_Voices for inviting me to your showcase of the UNCRC research work you have been undertaking. Wonderful to see young people leading change & creating an environment to share with change makers. The puppet show was extra! @ClacksFWP

The videos will be included in the teaching pack we're launching next week - 6 lesson plans for teachers to use to explore children's rights and AI with their classes.

Today we're launching the 4th and final of our videos on AI and children's rights, co-produced with Scottish children. In this video, they explain the UNCRC and why it matters when we're thinking about AI. youtu.be/4Qd1R_KkowI @Scottish_AI @turinginst #ChildrenShapingAI
