On the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, the European Commission has launched a survey to hear from children, young people , their parents and guardians about their views on the European Child Guarantee.
This initiative aims to provide all children in Europe at risk of poverty or social exclusion with access to vital services, including early childhood education and care, education, nutrition, healthcare, and housing. The survey’s findings will help identify effective strategies, areas for improvement and methods to better incorporate children’s voice into EU policy making.
The online survey will remain open for 7 weeks, until 8 December 2025. It is run via the EU Children’s Participation Platform as part of the Commission’s wider commitment to tackling poverty and supporting social inclusion across Europe.
The feedback will contribute to the upcoming Anti-Poverty Strategy, which has a separate public consultation open until 24 October.
