Tuesday 18th December 2018
Chair: Chris Ruane
This meeting is an opportunity to review why measuring children’s wellbeing is important and what impact a systematic approach could have on policy making. It will then explore why we do not yet systematically measure the wellbeing of children.
Participants will discuss the strength of the case for measuring children’s wellbeing and what would help move measurement, as well as policy and practice forward for the UK to invest in better childhoods.
