dc.description.abstractManitoba Advocate for Children and Youth (MACY) is an independent and non-partisan office with a governing legislation under The Advocate for Children and Youth Act (ACYA). Composed of two offices that work together to advocate for youth at various levels, MACY has an exceptional organizational model that includes a top-down and bottom-up approach with both offices in constant communication. The Advocacy Team is composed of frontline workers that advocate on behalf of all children, youth, and young adults by addressing issues related to a public service system, specific service provider, or area of the province. The second office is comprised of the Quality Assurance and Research team. The Research team conducts high-quality research studies to inform policy decisions makers. Informed of the issues identified by advocacy officers and the Manitoba Advocate, the Quality Assurance and Research team work to provide solutions through recommendations made through published reports. Recently, MACY published a compliance report to measure the response of recommendations made to various departments of the provincial government. The successful compliance to recommendations is integral to obtaining a positive peace. It is within the work competed by MACY that we see the amalgamation of peacebuilding and conflict resolution methods, as a means to bring about positive peace and ensure that the rights of children and youth within Manitoba are being upheld.en_US
