One Chance to be a Child Report and Video
Led by Dalhousie University’s Department of Pediatrics and the Healthy Populations Institute, this report provides the first comprehensive snapshot of child and youth well-being in the province and uses a child rights lens that included the voices of young people in what matters to their health and well-being. The One Chance to Be a Child data profile represents the work of a multidisciplinary team of service providers, academics and community leaders across Nova Scotia.
The report has six key recommendations that address broad issues like racism, discrimination and poverty, with 12 specific actions, including investing in a system to collect and monitor key data about children, using child rights impact assessments when making key decisions and passing legislation to keep the issue of child poverty reduction on the agenda of future governments.
