The workshop provided an opportunity to review existing monitoring and assessment methods, to share experiences on related strengths and weaknesses, to analyse the newly developed assessment toolkit and to agree on a common framework for its use at the local level.

The Child Friendly Cities Research initiative is a partnership between UNICEF Innocenti Research and Childwatch International, with the collaboration of Children’s Environments Research Group (CERG) and the support of the Bernard Van Leer Foundation.
