CELEBRATING CHILDREN
Celebrating Children:
Equipping People Working with Children in Difficult Circumstances Around the World'
Editors Glenn Miles and Josephine-Joy Wright.
A book recently published by Paternoster.
This is a comprehensive resource written by over 50 contributors from all around the world - from professors in prestigious universities to experienced practitioners recording their experience for the first time.
Full of cutting edge, practical information, it is a complete reference book, drawing on the experience of both government funded programmes and small sustainable community based initiatives.
This unique book grew from an interagency partnership facilitated by Viva Network. The partnership sought to address the need for Biblically based, academically-sound holistic training for people working with children. This partnership provides guidance on good practice concerning: Understanding the Child in Context; Key issues in Listening to Children; Risk & Resilience; Holistic Mission to Children; Working with Children-Practical Issues; Development, Evaluation and Monitoring of Programmes; development of Self & Staff.
