The toolkit was designed and developed during the duration of the research project «Protecting Migrant Children’s Rights» in which I was involved as key external non-academic partner.
It is directed to all professionals working with and for migrant children, including teaching professionals. The toolkit aims to provide a complete training on the legal recognition of the vulnerability and legal rights of migrant children and its implications in practice.
The Mini Guide, which I designed and created, is based on the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
Ιt is directed to parents, health professionals, teaching professionals wishing to receive an overview of the rights of babies and toddlers. It is currently available in Greek only.
This book includes the comparative study of legislation, policies and practices in Greece and Scotland regarding the implementation of children’s rights in early childhood that I have carried out with Dr Kristina Konstantoni, Senior Lecturer in Childhood Studies, Moray House School of Education, University of Edinburgh.
