Know: RMSOS and Ladder of Participation
On Wednesday, we started the morning session with a critical question: ,, What do you think participation is?’’
5 components of RMSOS were presented. Participants brainstormed and came up with the cases from their own communities concerning the following frames: Right, Means, Space, Opportunity and Support. We later found out from the daily reflection notes, that participants enjoyed this particular session felt free to speak up.
We got to know what are the 8 steps of youth participation. Examples of Manipulation, Decoration, Tokenism, Assigned but informed, Consulted and informed, Externally-initiated, shared decisions with the young people, Youth-initiated and directed, Youth-initiated, shared decisions with local authorities.
