The “Young People Say” training is a valuable session to take part in, especially with the involvement of young people themselves in the delivery. This training is designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of those working with children and young people, focusing on their active participation. Participants will explore various methods of participation, gaining insights into what these mean from the perspective of young people themselves. The training will also provide practical strategies for effectively engaging children and young people in both the work environment and decision-making processes. A discussion of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), which serves as a foundational framework for understanding children’s rights to participation, will also take place. By the end of the training, attendees will be equipped with the tools and understanding necessary to foster a more inclusive and participatory environment for young people.
Mae hyfforddiant “Pobl Ifancy n Dweud” yn sesiwn werthfawr i gymryd rhan ynddi, yn enwedig o ran cynnwys y bobl ifanc eu hunain yn y cyflwyniad. Mae’r hyfforddiant hwn wedi’i gynllunio i wella gwybodaeth a sgiliau’r rhai sy’n gweithio gyda phlant a phobl ifanc, gan ganolbwyntio ar eu cyfranogiad gweithredol. Bydd cyfranogwyr yn archwilio gwahanol ddulliau o gyfranogiad, gan gael mewnwelediad i’r hyn y mae’r rhain yn ei olygu o safbwynt y bobl ifanc eu hunain. Bydd yr hyfforddiant hefyd yn darparu strategaethau ymarferol ar gyfer cynnwys plant a phobl ifanc yn effeithiol yn yr amgylchedd gwaith ac yn y prosesau gwneud penderfyniadau. Bydd trafodaeth hefyd ar Gonfensiwn y Cenhedloedd Unedig ar Hawliau’r Plentyn (CCUHP), sy’n gweithredu fel fframwaith sylfaenol ar gyfer deall hawliau cyfranogiad plant. Erbyn diwedd yr hyfforddiant, bydd y mynychwyr yn meddu ar yr offer a’r ddealltwriaeth angenrheidiol i feithrin amgylchedd mwy cynhwysol a chyfranogol i bobl ifanc.
