Postpaternalism Research Workshop with Former Young Advisors: We started 2026 with an online research workshop on postpaternalism with children from five continents. The young people shared their views on what postpaternalism looks like to them, contributing to the development of this evolving children's rights theory. Postpaternalism () is the theory that underpins the YCJ project, hypothesising that children and youth are engaging in grassroots action - for the first time on a global scale - on the climate crisis; and children's rights has to be approached differently because of this.
Canada fieldwork: Our project, in collaboration with , is about to implement its second case study in Canada from April to June 2026. Dr. Nabin Maharjan (Postdoctoral Researcher) will research the views and experiences of children and from Newar community in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) via art-based workshops and an intergenerational art exhibition.
