Putting Children at the Centre. A practical Guide to Children's participation

These guides are intended as practical guidance for Save the Children staff working at Head Office and within country programmes who want to support children’s meaningful involvement in the governance, planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of their work. The guides have been written in consultation with staff who have expertise in facilitating children’s participation and those with specialist technical knowledge in the specific areas of work they cover. However, children’s participation is an evolving field with a myriad of valued approaches and definitions. You should therefore view these guides as providing a structure and support as you develop your own best practice and pilot new ways of involving children and young people in your own local context.
