Whether they are under lockdown and out of school, in refugee camps or in crowded villages, detained, or living on the streets, institutionalized or on the move, children and young people have the right to be heard. But their views are hardly ever sought out by decision-makers and their ideas are rarely listened to. The #CovidUnder19 initiative aims to change that. <\/strong><\/p>\n

#CovidUnder19 is led by children and young people, with the support of child rights activists, experts, and other key stakeholders. They work together to create spaces for children across the globe to meaningfully involve in the discussions about responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and to contribute towards shaping the post-COVID-19 world.<\/p>\n

On 28 May, the initiative launched a global consultation survey to understand children\u2019s experiences of the COVID-19 pandemic and their views on how they wish to get involved.\u00a0Children and young people aged between 8 and 17 years old are invited to participate in the survey until 31\u00a0July.<\/p>\n

The survey available in 22 different languages here, including Thai, Behasa Melayu, Korean, Filipino, Khmer, Japanese, Urdu, Hindi, Nepali, and Bengali:\u00a0go.qub.ac.uk\/CovidSurveys<\/a><\/p>\n
