It is slowly becoming more common for children and youth to give their opinions on issues related to their own situation. Nevertheless, some local and international NGOs working on children’s rights and on adolescent health have introduced good practices as well as useful tools to ensure young people's meaningful participation. The new Children and Youth Development Act established by the <a href="https://challenges.openideo.com/challenge/bridgebuilder2/impact/cara-alami-menghilangkan-benjolan-ambeien-dengan-bawang-putih">Children</a> and <a href="https://challenges.openideo.com/challenge/bridgebuilder2/impact/ampuh-100-cara-mengobati-penyakit-ambeien-atau-wasir-secara-alami">Youth Councils</a> provides greater opportunities to develop the skills and capacity of young people and engage them in decisions that affect their lives and society. Participation of children from vulnerable and excluded groups as well as equal representation should be stressed in order to have a powerful and practical impact. Additionally, equally important is the awareness among the wider public of the participation of children from vulnerable groups and the promotion of [Pagelink infos="gender equality"].http://www.unicef.org/thailand/1045_UNICEF_Final_row_res_230911.pdf</p>
<h3 id="w_children-and-youth-participation-in-the-media">Children and Youth Participation in the Media</h3>
<p>Children’s access to information, often through different forms of media, is also an important enabling factor for active citizenship and participation. The Foundation for Child Development and other NGOs have been working to promote children’s participation in the media through different programmes. With this Network 154 <a href="https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/collection/536c8bc2-cbd5-4bcc-ba95-2647019e2600/AMPUH-Obat-Ambeien-100-HerbalAlami-Paling-Mujarab-Sembuh-Tanpa-Obat-Kimia">Children</a> and <a href="https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/collection/ee6f0510-437d-4345-a00f-a877c6f8afc0/Tuntaskan-WASIR-Dalam-15-Menit-Tanpa-Harus-Operasi-Sampai-ke-Akar-akarnya-Dengan-Daun-Ajaib-Ini">youth</a> can communicate on sensitive issues, such as HIV prevention, drug abuse and sexuality, in their own language and style, which makes the information more accessible to their peers. The Thai Health Fund Foundation has supported programs, such as the Media and the Well-being of Children and Youth, which enable formation of various media and youth networks. These networks engage children in program production and monitoring to ensure better quality and more appropriate content for children and youth. http://www.unicef.org/thailand/1045_UNICEF_Final_row_res_230911.pdf</p>

<p>The Master Plan for Promoted Gender Equality falls under the Feminine Development Plan, which is a part of the plan of developing economic and social goals No. 11. pg. <a href="https://education.microsoft.com/Story/Lesson?token=1yjK3">2012</a>-<a href="https://education.microsoft.com/Story/Lesson?token=W0Yrx">2516</a>.

One particularly important goals was goal number three, which is to support the equality of gender and to promote the female role; The goal goes on to state four important indicators of Gender equality -</p>
<ol>
<li>The proportion of women to men in primary school, secondary school, and in higher education.</li>
<li>The rate of female literacy compared to males from age 15-24.</li>
<li>The proportion of females who work and earn a salary outside the agricultural sector.</li>
<li>The proportion of females in parliament.</li>
</ol>

<li>Improving data collection and analysis in order to separate female data from male data.</li>
</ol>

<li>Promote attitude and acceptance about the equality of gender.</li>
