Across two days in March, three children from Children’s Parliament’s organised and led an event on the issue of vaping.

Participants in the ‘Child Human Rights Defenders’ project, Ella (aged 13), Hamza (aged 12), and Kati (aged 12), co-designed and delivered all aspects of the event to raise awareness, gather views, and speak directly to local stakeholders and decision-makers.

“Children are the future of Scotland and they should be healthy.” (Hamza, age 13)

The children have been exploring the issue of vaping and it’s impact on their childhood for two years.
