- Abstract
Research on children's participation in various contexts has recently increased nationally and internationally. However, minimal research has been conducted on how South African child and youth care centres uphold children's participation rights. Additionally, insufficient research is available on how child and youth care workers and residential social workers perceive children's participation in multidisciplinary meetings. This research, therefore, included twelve child and youth care workers and six residential social workers from three child and youth care centres in the Cape Peninsula who participated in focus groups and semi-structured interviews. A deductive approach was used to analyse the data collected, underpinned by Lundy's model of child participation.
