Hanafin Hosts First Comhairle na nOg
Published 19/03/2002Following the successful first Dáil na nOg held in September, the Minister for Children, Mary Hanafin TD last week held the first Comhairle na nOg ( Children's' Council) for Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Development Board.
The Comhairle na nOg had two purposes: To give children a voice in their local community in line with the first goal of the National Children's Strategy and to select five local delegates for the next Dáil na nOg in the autumn.
Up to 100 children between the ages of 9 and 17 attended the Comhairle na nOg. Every school in the area was asked to send delegates and delegates were also invited from minority groups such as asylum seekers, the travelling community, children with disabilities and early school leavers. The ISPCC aided Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Development Board in the organisation of this event.
