Specifically, the Framework is being created to establish an efficient and effective mechanism that provides the Scottish Government with a strategic, high quality and sustainable approach to meaningfully engage with children and young people as part of its decision-making and policy design process. The Framework will enable policy areas across Scottish Government to identify, recruit and engage with organisations that have the skills and expertise required to design and deliver bespoke, high quality participation activities with children and young people. It is envisaged that the appointed suppliers will be both organisations operating at a national level and those working within specific communities. These organisations will engage with and represent a broad range of children and young people, with particular representation of those identified as being furthest from their rights. The Framework will be overseen by the Children’s Rights Unit to ensure a more collaborative, streamlined and strategic approach to participation by creating a database of all work commissioned. This will be an evidence bank for policy areas to pull from when carrying out Children’s Rights and Wellbeing Impact Assessments (CRWIA) and help to reduce duplication and ad-hoc engagement whilst also tackling engagement fatigue felt by stakeholders. ## Lots (5) ### Lot 1: A wide range of Children and Young People - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 73110000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** Organisations that work with infants, children and young people (either between a specific age range or across 0-18* years) with particular representation of those who are furthest from their rights/ seldom heard / vulnerable because of factors relat... - **Renewal published:** yes ### Lot 2: Children and Young People from Minority Ethnic Groups - **Lot id:** `2` - **Status:** active - **CPV codes:** 73110000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** Organisations that work with children (either between a specific age range or across 0-18 years) from minority ethnic groups.
