Nursery World - Scots launch forum for Europe's children

Helen Liddell, the secretary of state for Scotland, presided over the launch in Glasgow last week of a magazine which will explore approaches to children's services across Europe. Children in Europe is put together by representatives of magazines for childhood educators from seven different European countries. The UK partner is the charity Children in Scotland, which publishes its own monthly magazine about issues affecting children, young people and families in Scotland.

Kenneth Munro, the convenor of Children in Scotland, said, 'We are delighted that Scotland has been chosen as the venue for the launch of this new magazine. The magazine is being published simultaneously in seven languages and is fully independent of the European Commission and national governments. It will offer not only a valuable forum for the exchange of information, ideas and practice across the European Union, but an independent perspective on policies and developments relating to children and young people.'
