Family Tracing. A good practice guide.

Development Manual No.3

In times of war, drought and population displacements, children
become separated from their families. They may be lost, kidnapped,
abandoned, or have fled for good reason. This book discusses how to
trace these children's families and to reunite them where possible.
It highlights the importance of assessing the best interests of the
child, and of working with families and communities. It also covers:
the principles and values behind family tracing; examples of good
practice; the child's perspectives; suggestions for good
documentation and follow-up work; and staff and funding issues.
