Key Message

A culture of effective communication in education ensures that communication about decisions and decision-making processes involves stakeholders of all levels.

Voices into Action: Including the voices of learners and families in educational decision-making

The Voices into Action (VIA) activity examined the critical issue of involving the voices of learners and their families and how to effectively include them in decision-making.

Filmed during the VIA final event in spring 2023, the video features learners and their families discussing the impact that participating in educational decision-making has had on them. It also introduces the VIA Framework for Meaningful Participation and the Online Toolkit. Finally, educational policy-makers from the VIA participating countries discuss how the VIA activity and framework have impacted their work.
