International Institute for Child Rights and Development (IICRD)
About

IICRD is a unique hybrid organization: part academic institution, part non-governmental organization (NGO), affiliated with Royal Roads University in Victoria, Canada, and focused on social innovation with and for children and youth. For over two decades, IICRD has been a bridge-building organization working with a wide variety of partners in participatory, applied research, professional education, and community capacity building initiatives. Supporting our capacity to deliver these collaborations on the international scale is IICRD’s broad network of Associates, based out of countries in Africa, Asia, South America, Europe, and North America.

VISION:
Their vision is for children and youth to play a central role in shaping the present and future, with adults offering the support required, so that in collaboration, children and adults can strengthen and transform our world. To achieve this vision, we believe the approach to children’s rights needs to change.

VALUES/PRINCIPLES:
They are guided by the following principles: 

●     Lead with children and support their innovation
●     Build from strengths and relationships
●     Co-create with community
●     Use intergenerational processes to support healing and wellbeing
●     Bridge worlds using knowledge and action 
●     Recognize that personal and collective transformation is integral to creating positive social change
●     Strengthen children’s wellbeing, not only as an outcome of the work, but as integral of the process
