    © UNICEF/UN0340776/Nesbitt © Save the Children/Jonathan Hyams the Children/Jonathan © Save Background The European Union (EU) is committed to promoting and protecting the rights of children. It is undertaking two major pieces of work to contribute to making this commitment a reality: • A Strategy on the Rights of the Child, 2021-2024 • A Child Guarantee to ensure every child in Europe at risk of poverty has access to essential services To find out what children are experiencing and what they say needs to change, the EU approached five child rights organizations – Child Fund Alliance, Eurochild, Save the Children, UNICEF and World Vision – to consult with children on their lives, aspirations and concerns for the future. This report is a summary of the findings of that consultation with over 10,000 children aged 11–17 across Europe and beyond. For a copy of the full report, see here. ‘We urge all politicians to consider our views and needs when making decisions that concern us. As Albert Camus famously said, “Democracy is not the law of the majority but the protection of the minority”.’ (Extract from the Child Advisory Board’s foreword to the report) While each child’s life is unique and children’s situations differ significantly, this report provides a coherent and insistent set of messages that speak to being a child in the 2020s. Many common themes emerge – discrimination and exclusion; lack of access to vital services; failures in the education system; high levels of violence; and continued failure to listen to, respect and consider children’s views – with the most marginalized children facing the gravest challenges.

  • Side-Event Concept Note
    1 High Level Political Forum Official Side Event: The role of child-sensitive social protection in the sustainable and resilient recovery from Covid-19 July 7, 2021 7.30 – 9am EDT An Inter-generational Dialogue organized by Save the Children and UNICEF, co-sponsored and co-hosted by the Governments of Indonesia and Guatemala UNICEF and Save the Children, in collaboration with the governments of Indonesia and Guatemala, will host the HLPF side event: The role of child-sensitive social protection in the sustainable and resilient recovery from COVID-19. The event will facilitate an engaging debate around Child-Sensitive Social Protection (CSSP) and engage children and young people in the discussion. Child poverty has sky-rocketed as a result of COVID-19, inflicting devastating damage on children’s development and undermining the realization of their rights, as well as productivity, economic growth and social cohesion. We want to explore the role CSSP can play in the sustainable and resilient recovery from COVID-19 in order to lift children out of poverty, build human capital, reduce inequality, protect them from future crises, and as a pathway to achieving the SDGs.

  • The Global Transformation of Save the Children
    COLLABORATIVE GOVERNANCE INITIATIVE Syracuse University Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs Program for the Advancement of Research on Conflict and Collaboration From Alliance to International: The Global Transformation of Save the Children CASE STUDY PART A –BARRY CLARK COMES ON BOARD Shortly after coming into office as the board chair of Save the Children Alliance in 2002, Barry Clarke had a meeting with the existing Alliance Secretary General Burkhard Gnaerig. Barry introduced himself and said, “Look, I’ve been involved with Save the Children for quite a while but I’m not all together sure about how the alliances is organized. Could you take me through the organization plan?” Burkhard replied by pointing to a huge white board in his office and together they worked from one end of that board to the other. “What I noticed about the organization plan,” recalls Barry “is there were a lot of pieces that didn’t connect. There were lots of dotted lines that went nowhere. There were pieces that didn’t join up.” Barry admits he was naïve, assuming at first that Save the Children’s problem was principally structural and in his first few months he was squarely focused on trying to understand a system that appeared to him as “administratively wasteful and not terribly productive.” What Barry learned from his first meeting with the Alliance Secretary General was not entirely new to him. As a volunteer Save the Children UK (SC UK) board member in the early 1980’s, he had occasion to visit SC UK’s operations in Vietnam.

  • Is It Obligatory to Donate Effectively? Judgments About the Wrongness of Donating Ineffectively
    Is it obligatory to donate effectively? Judgments about the wrongness of donating ineffectively Lucius Caviola (Harvard University) & Stefan Schubert (Oxford University) Correspondence: [email protected], [email protected] Note: this is an early draft containing preliminary studies. Please contact us if you have questions or are interested in working on this research question. Abstract: Most donations end up with relatively ineffective charities. In this paper, we present five ​ preliminary studies on the hypothesis that people don’t find it obligatory to donate effectively. We find that people typically do not find it obligatory to donate to highly effective charities. We explore the conditions under which people do consider it obligatory to help effectively. For example, we find ​ ​ that people consider effectiveness more important when they are the only person who can help, or when the ineffective option is Pareto dominated by a more effective option. We also find that judgments of how obligatory it is to donate effectively are correlated with judgments of how obligatory it is to donate in the first place. Is it obligatory to donate effectively? Judgments about the wrongness of donating ineffectively In this paper, we present five pilot studies that investigate the hypothesis that people don’t find it morally obligatory to donate effectively (i.e. to donate to effective charities) when they donate. If true, this could be a part of the explanation of ineffective giving. Presumably people are less motivated to seek out effective charities if they don’t find it obligatory to donate effectively. (This is not to say it would be the whole explanation: there are also other causes of ineffective giving, such as misconceptions, biases and preferences for “pet charities”.

    THE POWER OF PHILANTHROPY INVEST IN SAVE THE CHILDREN’S HUMANITARIAN WORK “ One of the things that sets Save the Children apart is that we stay as long as necessary to help children, families and communities recover from their losses, rebuild their lives and become more resilient to future shocks.” – Carolyn Miles, President & CEO, Save the Children 2 SAVE THE CHILDREN Photo: Jonathan Hyams, 2013 The Power of Philanthropy AN INVITATION TO INVEST IN SAVE THE CHILDREN’S HUMANITARIAN WORK The best investment that companies can make to ensure future prosperity in markets where they do business is to mitigate the negative and devastating toll emergencies can have on households, local businesses and entire economies.

  • The Care of Orphans in the Islamic Tradition, Vulnerable Children, and Child Sponsorship
    J OURNAL OF MUSLIM PHILANTHROPY & CIVIL SOCIETY 4 THE CARE OF ORPHANS IN THE ISLAMIC TRADITION, VULNERABLE CHILDREN, AND CHILD SPONSORSHIP PROGRAMS 0F Jonathan Benthall University College London One of the most favored areas for Muslim charitable works is the care of orphans. The Prophet Muhammad was an orphan himself: his father died either just before or just after he was born, his mother died when he was only six, and he was taken in by the family of his paternal uncle. Several passages in the Qur’an condemn those who misappropriate orphans’ property. The result is that there can be few Islamic welfare organizations that do not include orphans among their beneficiaries, and emotive appeals on their behalf are disseminated to the public. Muslims generally define “orphan” as a child who has lost his or her father, i.e., the family breadwinner. The term “orphan” is held to include foundling infants and street children as well as those with known relatives and is also, in practice, sometimes used as a euphemism for a child born out of wedlock who is rejected by a family. The last few years have seen a flowering of research on Muslim philanthropy as one Copyright © 2019 Jonathan Benthall http://scholarworks.iu.edu/iupjournals/index.php/jmp DOI: 10.2979/muslphilcivisoc.3.1.01 Volume III • Number I • 2019 J OURNAL OF MUSLIM PHILANTHROPY & CIVIL SOCIETY 5 aspect of a broader research interest in charity and humanitarianism. This article confines itself to some programmatic suggestions, juxtaposing the Islamic predisposition to care for orphans with current trends in child-focused research, thereby revealing what could be a fruitful field for empirical enquiry.
