Focusing on the emergence of young citizens as a global priority, the book explores the conditions and processes that shape children's and young people's participation in social change. It draws on extensive international literature and interviews with practitioners, policy-makers, and activists from diverse countries, including Japan, South Africa, and the UK. Engaging with contemporary debates around citizenship, rights, and governance, it examines the complex dynamics that influence how children and youth are governed and empowered to self-govern.
