Children do not vote. It is therefore vital that we give them the opportunity to have their voices heard in order to influence public policy. This session will create a rich discussion between a group of children, a social pediatrician, an expert in pediatric ethic, and a legal consultant. Michel Venne, Director of the Institut du Nouveau Monde, will facilitate the discussion and help to establish a concrete action plan.

Speakers: Franco Carnevale, Dr Gilles Julien et Hélène (Sioui) Trudel

Special guest: Valérie Gauthier

Moderator: Michel Venne
