The Portfolio Committee on Women,
Children and People with Disabilities held dialogues with children in various
provinces including Guateng , Free
State Mpumalanga Eastern Cape
The dialogues were a way for the
committee to hear first hand from children the challenges they face within
their communities, and to create opportunities for public participation with
civil society.
Chairperson of the Committee Dorothy
Ramodibe said during this time the Committee sat with children and the aim was
to hear from them what were the challenges.
Ramodibe added that the in most
cases there are many talks about children in their absence but this time it was
decided to include them so that they can also be educated in many issues and
about Parliament.
