Summary

Prime Trust organizes Children's Parliaments for children of the remedial schools and of our Self-Help Group members. These parliaments are designed for children between the age of 9 and 14 and encourage them to engage in local, national and international democratic processes. Essentially these children are discussing issues that directly affecting their lives. Through these parliaments we believe that every child should be able to express themselves openly and without fear.
