Report Sida CSO 2013-2015

Save the Children Sweden is a member of the world’s leading independent organisa-tion for children, Save the Children International, which bases its work on the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. This three years’ report includes results from five global programs covering the themes: Child Rights Governance; Children’s right to Protection; Health and Nutrition; Education; and preparedness and Disaster Risk Reduction. It covers programs and activities implemented globally, regionally in Af-rica, Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Middle East, as well as in national pro-grams.

SC Sweden has developed this report in close collaboration and consultation with country and regional offices, civil society partners and employed staff at different lev-els of our organisation. It is structured to correspond to the requirements set out in Sida’s instructions.

The first part of the report focuses on describing the internal changes which Save the Children, both as a global and a Swedish organisation, has gone through during the past three years and the actions we have taken to become a more efficient and ef-fective organisation in the work for children’s rights.

The major part of the report is dedicated to the description and analysis of Save the Children Sweden’s five global programs, their stated objectives and achieved re-sults during 2013–2015. The programs have been implemented together with local civil society organisations, some of them led by children.
