Mee>ng aims
§ To examine how children’s rights to provision, protec>on and par>cipa>on are being enhanced or undermined in the digital age.
§ To build on current understandings of the risks and opportuni>es afforded to children worldwide as they gain access to internet-‐enabled technologies of one kind or another.
§ On the one hand, it is vital to learn from the research experiences and methodological exper>se already developed.
§ On the other hand, it is >mely to rethink the current research and policy agendas, largely developed in the global North, by addressing the ques>ons and concerns that arise in the global South.

Six challenges
1. To iden>fy the key opportuni>es and barriers to children’s rights in a digital age, viewed from diverse perspec>ves and con>nents.
2. To debate the merits and challenges of standardized versus contextual approaches to cross-‐cultural research.
3. To address the research challenges regarding research and policy priori>es, research training needs and research impact.
4. To consider mul>stakeholder engagement and funding prospects.
5. To recognise the prac>cal, poli>cal and ethical challenges of conduc>ng such research.
6. To scope key elements that could be developed for a flexible, modular research toolkit likely to be of wide benefit.
