Synopsis

This book is about mainstreaming children in international development and policy. It focuses on the role of children's 'voices' (broadly defined) and the intersection of knowledge about childhood poverty, policy and practice. The book weaves together theory, mixed methods approaches and case studies spanning a number of policy sectors and diverse developing country contexts. The book provides an introduction to students and development professionals who are new to debates on children and development, whilst at the same time offering scholars in the field new methodological and empirical insights.
