About Us
What Drives Us?
Our approach gives children a voice. Equipping children to navigate their everyday lives by encouraging them to grow in awareness of themselves and others, develop knowledge, skills and strategies to navigate the world around them and to maximise opportunities to participate and engage and make a positive difference.
EquippingKids Limited has been providing a vehicle for research and development work for over 10 years. Our work has allowed us to engage with tens of thousands of children and families and professionals in schools and the community.

Our Approach
Releasing a child's voice improves social outcomes, furthering societies knowledge of the way children experience their everyday lives - allowing adults, in consultation with children, to set policies and create practices that are relevant, meaningful and ultimately make a positive difference.
