About this user

Save the Children Sweden is a broad based democratic movement. We are a politically and religiously unaffiliated non- governmental organisation founded on the principle of voluntary, individual membership. Save the Children Sweden is guided by the fundamental values expressed in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) and the UN Declaration on Human Rights and is founded on the conviction that: • All children and adults are of equal value • Children have special rights • Everyone has a responsibility to respect and promote the rights of the child, but the State has particular obligations To achieve sustainable improvements in childrens lives and to encourage societies in which we operate to respect, protect and realise the rights of the child, we use a combination of four work methods: research and analysis, direct support, knowledge dissemination and capacity building, and advocacy and awareness raising. All four methods are of equal importance in our work. None of the methods can be used in isolation. Advocacy and capacity building efforts are always based on practical, direct experience and/or solid research and analysis. Direct support projects as well as research and analysis work are always linked to advocacy or capacity building efforts.
