One day to get your views heard on the QLD Government's Putting Queensland Kids First Consultation Draft! It should come with no surprise that 54 reasons' submission advocates for Government to: ✅ Make upholding child rights THE central organising principle for this package ✅ Address root causes that influence children's outcomes and maintain inequities, for true transformative change ✅ Drive a stronger focus on early and accessible supports for children whose rights are most at risk - those in poverty, in contact with statutory systems and those facing racism and other forms of systemic discrimination ✅ Invest in measures to hear and act on children's voices in policy development and implementation.

Imagine worrying about your child’s development and wanting to consult a paediatrician for advice. In country NSW, getting a paediatrician's appointment isn't easy – you can face up to a six-year wait. This means that by the time your child is well into their schooling years, you may still be without the answers you need. Consider the impact this delay could have on your child’s development, and their life trajectory. This isn't just a hypothetical situation; it's the reality for many families in country NSW.

Pleased to be attending the 94th Working Group on the Quality of Childhood (QoC) at The European Parliament: 94th Working Group on the Quality of Childhood (QoC) Tue, 01 Oct | Hybrid Event EP INFO - HUB & online Public Policies For Children In Europe. The State Of Art on Education, Social Protection, Health And Well-Being. Time & Location 01 Oct 2024, 11:00 – 12:30 CEST Hybrid Event EP INFO - HUB & online About the Event How governments spend money on children, and organise their portfolios of child policies, can have profound implications on poverty, inequality, development and well-being. Poorly designed policies and portfolios, and/or low public spending in children particularly in the early years, drive inequality and inequity in child development. For example, children from more advantaged backgrounds, who are less reliant on public investment, develop at much faster rates than those from poorer backgrounds, when public efforts are suboptimal. Through the accumulation of advantages, the same children will benefit more from public spending later on in life, as they will be more attached to public services like education. The purpose of this QoC is to discuss the how mainstream public policies in Europe can help all children develop to their unique and full potential, from day 1, and achieve their well-being. The aims of this meeting are twofold. First, to illustrate how European countries are investing in child policies – in terms of policy choices, expenditures levels and the timing of interventions– and assess what this might mean for the betterment of living conditions for young children and their families in these countries. Second, to review the evidence on what works for all children, their families, their education and their societies as a whole, and how the disconnect between ‘best evidence’ and ‘policy action’ has resulted in lost opportunities for children and families, and foregone social development. The meeting will result in policy recommendations, based on the analyses above, that call for an expedited and well-managed expansion of coherent and integrated child policy portfolios across the bloc as part of meeting the economic and social remit of the European agenda.
