The Children’s Rights Innovation Fund (CRIF) is a collective challenge to reinvigorate and transform the global children’s rights field by building power with youth activists and their allies. 

In partnership with funders, youth activists, practitioners, and allies, CRIF cultivates innovation and collaboration to dismantle the root causes of children’s vulnerability and strengthen the root drivers of their well-being.

In 2024, CRIF has partnered with We Trust Youth to embark on a year long learning journey inspired by the significant interest among donors and colleagues in the children’s rights sector wanting to move towards more meaningful youth engagement together.

What’s Possible… 

when funders follow young people’s lead, is an Experiential Learning Institute and $1M pooled fund presented by the Children’s Rights Innovation Fund (CRIF), in partnership with We Trust You(th).

What’s Possible will enable a cohort of donors to learn and plan WHILE funding participatory youth-driven grantmaking.
