YOUTH – Care & Protection of Children in Emergencies. A Field Guide

The “Field Guide to Youth Programs in Emergencies” is one in a series compiled through its Children and War Capacity Building Initiative. Through this initiative, Save the Children (SC) has made a clear institutional commitment to providing quality programmes which support the well-being of affected populations in emergencies and crisis, and to ensuring that SC staff have the knowledge and skills they need to continue this important work. It has been designed specifically for SC field, headquarters, and partner organisation staff members who are involved in the design and management of children and war programmes. Youth programming in emergencies has been largely ignored, and this field guide is an important step towards both raising awareness of youths’ specific concerns as well as supporting SC’s staff in their work in this area.
