In Phase I, to align with the local context and culture, Plan International developed the “5-Stage Model – Child Participatory Community Development” as the project framework. In Phase III, based on our practical experience, we have adjusted the framework to “4-Stage Programme Cycle for Child Participatory Community Development”. This adjustment allows for a clearer division of the steps involved in child participation and emphasises the importance of children expressing their voices through community actions. We believe that children and youth are active agents of change, and by nurturing children to be voices of their own groups, we can bring about positive and lasting transformation for the community.
