The General Assembly of TEDDY network was held on-line on the 7th of July, within a hearing at the Council of Europe.

TEDDY strongly supports this important initiative and was invited by the Council of Europe to present some of its activities as good practices in the promotion and empowerment of children strategies aimed at facilitating their participation in the decision-making process.
