See it, Say it, Change It gives children and young people a chance to tell their side of the story to the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child when it examines the UK Government in 2016 on how well it is realising children's rights.

The online survey from CRAE (Children's Rights Alliance for England) is a great opportunity for children and young people in England to talk about their lives, share their experiences and views and let CRAE know if their rights are being met. The findings from the survey will be sent to the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child in July 2015 as part of a children and young people's report.

They want as many children and young people as possible to complete the survey, which is here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Seeitsayit

See it, Say it, Change it is being led by a steering group of children and young people, aged between 7 and 17 years, from across England. This group have helped to plan the online survey and will be conducting research with their peers. CRAE will also be supporting them to campaign on the recommendations made by the UN to ensure they are acted upon by the government so that children's rights are realised in England.
