‘Exploration of the issues, challenges, and opportunities facing the youths of People of African Descent in Ireland in relation to recognition, development, and justice’.
Questionnaire
The International Decade for People of African Descent 2015-2024 is a United Nations Programme adopted for implementation in all member states from the resolution 16/237 of 2013 of the UN General Assembly. The decade seeks to address injustice and discrimination faced by people of African descent globally reflecting on and taking into account the history of discrimination and mistreatment of people of African and African Descent from Slavery and Colonialism through to contemporary times.
The purpose of this research is to investigate the opportunities and major issues that have been highlighted as challenges facing people of African Descent in Ireland. The focal issues include but are not limited to opportunities and life challenges encountered by African youths, children, and families concerning their recognition, development, and access to justice in Ireland. The results of the study shall be used to inform the United Nations and governments to develop policies and interventions to support children, youth, and families of people of African descent.
All information provided in the course of this research will be treated in the strictest confidence and will not be passed on to anyone or anybody outside the Children, Youth, and Parents Subcommittee in a way that could be associated with an identifiable child or young person unless we record information which leads us to be concerned about their health or safety, as outlined in Children First guidelines for the protection and welfare of children.
