About Singapore Children's Forum
Started in 2013, Singapore Children's Forum (SCF) is a platform for children and young persons (CYP) in Singapore to participate and to express their views on issues that matter to them ◝(ᵔᵕᵔ)◜
Anchoring the SCF is Article 12 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) — that CYP have a right to participate in matters that affect them and for their opinions to be taken seriously.
