Meaningful improvements for children and youth growing up in care can only be made in partnership with Care Leavers who have experience with the care system. The solution lies in the wisdom of lived experiences of Care Leavers who most know what’s at stake, towards powerful, lasting change. The need of the hour is to hear the unheard voices of Care Leavers and provide them with a platform to improve the support and opportunities available to them, especially considering the care system exists for their benefit. The International Care Leavers Convention is a unique opportunity to collectivize Care Leavers at international level and elevate the voices of children and young people – because without the insight of these young leaders our care systems won’t be effective. The objective of the convention is to bring Care Leavers together and provide them with a platform to emerge from learning, sharing and exchanging experiences, knowledge and challenges on their situation such that it amplifies their voices and attracts the attention of decision-makers to act upon their demands through the betterment of the policy and practice related to them.
