Princess Madeleine took part in a virtual meeting relating to the Childhood Award

On Wednesday, Princess Madeleine took part in the virtual jury meeting of the Childhood Award 2020. The jury had a first review of the nominations received for the Childhood Award. No later than December 4, three finalists will be selected by the jury. An occupational group is in the focus of the Childhood Award every year. In 2020, it will be awarded to a person who works with children and young people in the social services.

The purpose of the Childhood Award is to honour the people in Sweden who play a crucial role in keeping children safe, but whose work is not always noticeable, such as the police or the people working in social services, healthcare or schools.
