Looking Back, Looking Ahead Our Rights, Our Parliament, 2018 Foreword When I visited Wales last year, I had the wonderful opportunity to meet some of the people who were in- volved in the Campaign for the Children and Young People’s Assembly for Wales. I was impressed by the fact that in Wales there was broad and growing acceptance that children are not simply passive observers in the world, but that they are and must be active citizens and agents of change. As one young person from Rhondda Cynon Taff explains in this report: “It only makes sense to have a youth assembly … It encourages younger generations to become more politically active – getting their voices heard, instead of being drowned out in the noise.” I could not agree more. It is imperative that young people are empowered to build the arguments that will maintain and reform our democracies. I learned during my visit that the Presiding Officer of the National Assembly for Wales and her team were working together with the young campaigners and others, so I am delighted but not surprised to learn that, at the time of this report, the election process toward the first Welsh Youth Parliament is underway.

Since devolution, the Welsh Government has actively pursued a ‘sustainable development’ and a ‘children’s rights’ agenda. However, until recently, these separate agendas also did not contribute to each other, al- though they culminated in two radical and innovative pieces of legislation; the Rights of Children and Young Persons (Wales) Measure (2013) and the Well-being and Future Generations (Wales) Act (2015).

  • Update from the Welsh Youth Parliament's Littering And
    Chair of Climate Change, Environment and Rural Affairs Committee Mike Hedges AM, 27 January 2020 UPDATE FROM THE WELSH YOUTH PARLIAMENT’S LITTERING AND PLASTIC WASTE COMMITTEE Dear Mike Hedges AM, Chair of Climate Change, Environment and Rural Affairs Committee As you will be aware, last year, the Welsh Youth Parliament (WYP) held its first ever sitting in the Senedd Chamber where Welsh Youth Parliament Members (WYPMs) debated eighteen different topics that were identified as important to young people across Wales. The three key issues that the Youth Parliament decided to focus on were: 1. Emotional and Mental Health Support 2. Littering and Plastic Waste 3. Life Skills in the Curriculum Having chosen the top three priority issues the WYPMs decided that they should break into issue committees. A key part of each committee’s work is to consult with other young people, relevant organisations, youth groups and staff to help each committee understand the issues in greater detail, and help inform the WYPs key recommendations. As the Littering and Plastic Waste Committee, we have already consulted with sector-leading organizations such as Wrap Cymru, Surfers against Sewage and Iechyd Da. Our intention is to run an awareness campaign to increase young people’s understanding on this important issue, and in the process consult with young people (through events and an online survey) to find out what steps they think should be taken in the future. Key dates for the WYP Littering and Plastic Waste Committee for 2020 include: Month Activity January/February Regional meetings for all WYPMs in the four regions to plan awareness and consultation activity March 23 and 30 Regional events involving WYPMs and other young people across Wales.

Despite progress in some areas, such as increases in employment, a narrowing of educational attainment gaps for some, and an increase in levels of political participation, we still see levels of inequality that are frankly unacceptable in the 21st century. There is a lot still to do in Wales to ensure everyone is free from discrimination and can enjoy their basic human rights. “A society that enables people to fulfil their This chapter focuses on how key potential no matter what their background or challenges affect certain groups (those circumstances (including their socio-economic listed in the Equality Act 2010) but also circumstances).” recognises intersectionality which is understanding the way in which The Well-being of Future characteristics such as gender, race or Generations Act (2015) disability can interact and increase disadvantage in specific situations.
