Short description of project
Funded by the Lifelong Learning Programme (EU), the CREAN project gathered a total of 37 partners (both academic institutions and NGOs) around the major aims of enhancing the academic field of children’s rights studies as an interdisciplinary field of studies. It capitalised on the extant investment and strengths of the network, while significantly enhancing its ability to engage new members in achieving the following aims and objectives: •Strengthen the potentials of higher education institutions in the development and implementation of children’s rights programmes and courses •Provide support to university teaching staff •Promote early career researchers •Involve external stakeholders in the discussion on the relevance and effectiveness of the content of the programmes and courses Over 36 months this project funded with support from the European Commission put together: • Two conferences with different key subjects in the area of children’s rights • Developing interdisciplinary teaching materials through expert workshops • Created a highly visible body of early career researchers, inter alia by awarding a prize to such researchers • Exchanged teachers across higher education institutions The Children´s Rights Erasmus Academic Network (CREAN) is a network of universities offering higher education in children's rights with the major aim to include further enhancement of the academic field of children's rights studies as an interdisciplinary field of studies. The network is based upon a common belief that childhood is a social, historically changeable phenomenon and that children are social subjects who are to be respected as such, with own views, interests, competences and the right to comprehensive participation. CREAN intends to give more importance to the ways in which rights holders relate to and make use of their rights, and overcome existing constraints. By linking theory and practice, it intends to change the reality of children's legal position in society.
