N2  - Are We Listening? reports on how well the government is implementing the Children’s Convention in relation to children’s participation rights. It is the second thematic report in the Children's Convention Monitoring Group’s Getting it Right series, following on from last year’s Getting it Right – Building Blocks, which focussed on the General Measures of Implementation of the Children’s Convention.

The report briefly discusses what children’s participation is and presents the benefits of considering children’s views in policy. It then looks at how the government is currently considering children’s views in policy development, and highlights opportunities where more can be done. Examples of some current government practice are included.  The report ends with 10 ideas for strengthening children’s participation in the policy process, to ensure policies are influenced and shaped by children, consistent with their rights.
