Underlying principles and identity

The work of the Forum is rights-based, inspired by universal values, informed by global experiences and knowledge, and guided by the needs and conditions of African children as seen and felt by them and their parents.  It will thus have an African- and children-driven agenda which at the same time will profit from and be cognizant of world thinking and development.

The Forum is and will remain an independent, not-for-profit organization, with no political or religious affiliations, Pan-African advocacy centre working for realization of Children's rights.
