Sumario: | This report outlines six key policy areas which, when taken in a coordinated and coherent way, increase the chances of childhood well-being and address risk factors of vulnerability. These policy areas aim to empower vulnerable families and improve parenting skills, boost children's emotional and social skills, make child protection services more child-centred and accessible and improve after-care services, increase children's educational success and improving early education quality, improve children's health including pre-natal care and nutrition, and reduce children's poverty and material deprivation and removing barriers for parental employment. First, the report looks into the individual, family and environmental factors that contribute to child vulnerability and the special considerations for children in vulnerable countries.
