International contributors drawing on case studies from around the world consider how children can actively participate in decision-making. Since the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, there has been an increasing recognition globally that children need to have more say in their education. "Children as Decision Makers in Education" is concerned with how children can actively participate in decision-making. It builds upon previous research into student voice and decision-making, citizenship education in the school curriculum and work with children as researchers. This forward-looking collection, brings together cross-cultural experiences and supports others to work collaboratively in the future.
