Download - Guidelines for the Alternative Care fo Children

Since the approval of the Guidelines, the continuing challenge has been their implementation. Funded by a global consortium a handbook titled ‘Moving Forward: Implementing the ‘Guidelines for the Alternative Care of Children' was developed to answer to this challenge. The core text was drafted by an international team led by CELCIS, supervised by an expert steering group led by ISS. Hundreds of professionals from Governments, NGOs, UN agencies and academia fed into the drafting process which includes promising practices from over 40 countries. The handbook was field tested in Argentina and Malawi.
