This volume presents a study on children and youth in informal settlements of five Philippine cities that are implementing the Child Friendly Cities program. The voices of children and youth are highlighted, as emphasis is placed on how they perceive their surroundings, work and income, education, poverty and wellbeing, child rights, parents as promoters of children, and adolescents at risk. The themes emerging from their testimonies are identified, and their views analyzed in terms of how the five cities are addressing the children and youths rights to survival, development, protection, and participation.
