Child participation in armed conflict, post-conflict and peace-building (call for expressions of interest)

Save the Children Norway is searching for a research institution, consultancy group or individual researcher/consultant to assist with a thematic documentation and evaluation of child participation in armed conflict, post-conflict and peace-building.

This is an increasingly important area of work for Save the Children Norway. Children and young people have themselves voiced a clear messages for peace and education, for being included in peace processes and receiving support to their ideas and initiatives for peace.

The overall purpose of this thematic evaluation is to support and improve Save the Children Norway’s work to contribute to strengthening children and young people’s capacities regarding peace building initiatives, which make up one basis for including children’s voices in peace processes and agreements. The evaluation should also contribute to increased quality and sustainability of work on child participation in Save the Children Norway’s and partner organisations.

Research is due to start during 2006 and conclude with final reporting in 2008. Activities and projects in several country programmes will be incuded.

Submissions deadline: 15 April 2006
