Childcity
We encourage children to participate in their city and promote their inclusion as active citizens.
This project strives to strengthen the modes and means of collective participation among children and adolescents. It has achieved increased participation of children in their municipalities and has strengthened existing mechanisms for the inclusion of this demographic by overcoming the obstacles posed by adult-centred positions and reinforcing development to generate new proposals linked to participatory processes and self-organized participation.

Strengths
- The project encourages reflective processes to stimulate innovation in ways to encourage the participation of children in socio-educational contexts with other children and community members.
- This project and others that give it continuity promote the co-creation of spaces for participation by children and adolescents (children's platforms).
Ten proposals for politicians and municipal officers to advance the participation of children and adolescents.
- Increased child participation in municipalities, strengthening existing mechanisms and generating new proposals linked to participatory processes and self-organized participation.
- The inclusion of children as active citizens and the provision of training to ensure their participation is meaningful, overcoming adult-centred positions and reinforcing development.
- Factors for change and improvement were identified through a participatory diagnostic assessment involving children, adolescents and municipal officers.
