Indicator’s Purpose

This indicator measures the total number of children and young people who took part in participatory activities supported by IR and partners (including consultative, collaborative and child-led forms of participation). As an output indicator, this indicator should be used to calculate the outcomes of child participation.

How to Collect and Analyse the Required Data

What do we count? Children and young people involved in participatory processes.

How to calculate the indicator's value - Sum of children and young people.

Data sources - Project monitoring tools (activity registers).

Data collection methods and tools - Document review.

Disaggregate by

Aged, gender, disability, community type

Important Comments

This indicator is an output indicator that does not capture the outcomes of participation. Therefore, for all projects in which beneficiaries are being counted towards this indicator, it is crucial to consider how the project will measure children’s and young people’s perceptions of their participation, which required deploying an additional tool (such as a questionnaire).
