City of Canterbury Bankstown is committed to upholding the Convention on the Rights of the Child and we are continuously working through our Child-Friendly City Action Plan. 

The Child Friendly City initiative is a UNICEF global initiative to ensure the voices, needs, priorities and rights of children are an integral part of public policies and programs.

In addition to this, CBCity is committed to being a Child Safe Organisation, as prescribed by the National Child Safe Scheme. The NSW Child Safe Standards provide a framework for ensuring organisations put the needs of children first and continually work to improve practices to keep children safe from harm.
