Children's Rights Discourse is Strengthening: Workshops for Civil Society Continue

10.Feb.2026

Within the scope of the ACAR Project, carried out with UNICEF's technical support and in cooperation with the Delegation of the European Union to Turkey, the sub-project "Enhancing the Capacity of Academia and Media to Empower Participation and Demand in the Discourse on Children's Rights," implemented by Izmir University of Economics, continues its civil society activities in Ankara. The 2nd Civil Society Workshop will take place in Ankara on March 9–11, 2026.

In this process, where the critical role of non-governmental organizations working in the field of child rights is emphasized—in terms of advocacy, field practices, and direct contact with communities—the workshops aim to strengthen NGOs’ rights-based, ethical, and safe communication practices.

Scope of the Workshop

During the workshop, NGO representatives will gain both theoretical knowledge and practical experience through case analyses and hands-on workshops on the following topics:
   •   Principles of rights-based communication
   •   Child protection standards
   •   Safe and dignified storytelling
   •   Ethical dilemmas encountered in field communication
   •   Building trust with communities
   •   Risks and safe representation in digital spaces
   •   Developing advocacy messages and campaign design
   •   Platform-specific content creation (Instagram, TikTok, Twitch, X, etc.)

Event Information

Date: March 9–11, 2026
Venue: Ankara (Details about the venue will be shared later in the process.)
All representatives of non-governmental organizations working in the field of child rights are invited to the workshop.
