More than 50,000 children aged 8 to 12 in 15 countries were asked about their experiences and views about their lives. Research of this kind is rare and this is the most wide-ranging and diverse study ever conducted internationally on children’s lives from their own perspectives.
The first report from the Children’s Worlds study, published today, shows important results that can be used to improve children’s lives around the world. The Jacobs Foundation has funded this ongoing international project over the past three years with a total amount of EUR 850,000.
